Historia
Eccentric millionaire and owner of an amusement park, Steven Price, invites five strangers to his newly acquired 'House on Haunted Hill' for a chance to win $1 million if they survive the night. The house was once a mental institution with a gruesome past, including murders committed by inmates and staff alike. As the group spends the night, they discover that the house is indeed haunted by its past inhabitants and that Steven has rigged the house with deadly traps designed to kill them off one by one. Throughout the night, the survivors must outsmart the ghosts and navigate the house's treacherous defenses in order to make it out alive.
Resumen
William Malone's 'House on Haunted Hill' (1999) is a horror film that serves as a remake of the classic 1959 film of the same name. The movie follows the premise of an amusement park mogul inviting five strangers to spend the night in a decrepit former mental institution for a chance at winning $1 million. The house, once used as a lunatic asylum, is filled with ghosts from its murderous past. The film is notable for its absurd and thrilling set pieces, including deadly traps rigged throughout the house by Steven Price himself. The story serves as both a ghost film and a mystery thriller, keeping viewers on edge until the final after-credits stinger.
