If you are a horror fan like me, you have to watch this movie. The special effect are super cool, still cool for modern times. A little slow in the biginning but man, it pick up right away. I don't understand why they haven't made a remake of this movie, instead they make remakes of BAD movies of shows from the 70's.

While looking into movies that I loved as a kid I ran across this one that I first saw on late night cable just after we got it. I really enjoyed it then and now but it's NOT THAT GREAT!

Professor(Richard Crenna) takes students to house and IT'S HAUNTED!!!

While it does entertain, It's in a campy way, not as a great horror movie. I'm a lover of the old T.V. horror movies, so you know that graphic gore isn't what I look for. This one has a story line that is filled with every cliche of the "Haunted House" genre and it goes step by step through every one of them. like I said it's fun , But "Gone With The Wind" it ain't!

I really enjoying watching this horror film during 1988. This is the best movie I've watched during that time. I don't understand why the producer never re-create this into DVD...Hope that they read this and decided to remake it to DVD movie.

The movie is wasted only by scenes of people sliding around and people getting killed by electric shocks. There isn't enough to qualify this as spine-tingling fun. It is also laughably dated in visual material! Try to watch that sick girl shake all over the floor in her undies for a change and you'll see why! The only exception would be Andrew Prine sinking in mud and attempting to commit suicide.

At first, I was expecting a shrieky classic haunted house spook show, but that wasn't it. Granted, THE EVIL suffers from a serious lack of diversity. You know a movie that has a conflicting situation between good and evil, and the end always turns out to be quite simple. Any low-budget horror movie can do A LOT better than this, but for the moment, give THE EVIL some extra credit for its dark and thunderous setting that lives up to my expectations. This one spoils the most hardcore horror fans for not being frightening enough.

Saw this on T.V. in 1981 and loved it.A group of do-gooders take over an old mansion so as to use it as a drug counselling centre.Before long , one of them starts to see a ghost and the others come up against an unseen force which has been unwittingly released.Keep an eye out for Victor Buono cackling his way through a scene stealing part.Can't say much more without ruining it , but i love 70's horror and this one is pretty special to me.

they do not make movies like this any more. the movies of today have entirely to many crazy effects in them. i use the term crazy because there is nothing " special" about them . i love horror movies. a little word to to the wise media and embassy both have put out plenty of great movies in the 80's look for them also dont be so quick to grab that new release you may just wish you had of used that $4.00 to rent a movie worth watching. i did not leave any feedback about the movie because i cant wait untill you watch it thanks and enjoy.
