5.0 out of 5 stars Underrated!
When I met Mickey Rooney, even he said, "Terrible picture. Terrible picture." I can appreciate that this was at a low point in his professional career and yet his performance is wonderful, the plot breezy and the sets and lighting are moodily gothic. Add Richard Deacon in the supporting cast and you have a Francis entry that rivals even "Francis Joins...

This review is from: Francis in the Haunted House [VHS] (VHS Tape)
When I met Mickey Rooney, even he said, "Terrible picture. Terrible picture." I can appreciate that this was at a low point in his professional career and yet his performance is wonderful, the plot breezy and the sets and lighting are moodily gothic. Add Richard Deacon in the supporting cast and you have a Francis entry that rivals even "Francis Joins the WACS". I think many had a hard time getting past Francis having a new sidekick- no Donald O'Connor. I wish this were on DVD!

5.0 out of 5 stars francis in the haunted house, January 29, 2009
This review is from: Francis in the Haunted House [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This item was a discarded library copy and it was in very good shape. The movie itself was great and there wasn't a flaw in it. Kathy

1.0 out of 5 stars For completists only. Try another Francis comedy first., December 8, 1999

This review is from: Francis in the Haunted House [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This final "Francis the Talking Mule" opus features a different leading comic (Mickey Rooney), a different director (Charles Lamont), and even a different voice for Francis (Paul Frees). All are usually capable of good comedy, but they can't do much with an unfunny script. There's a good chase climax at the end, but you have to sit through the first hour to see it. Not worth your time unless you have to have all the Francis movies. Try an older one first.
