《鬼屋之影》是由知名导演皮特·沃克 执导的一部喜劇片,Vincent Price Christopher 等倾情出演,该片讲述了: A quick glimpse at t he cast for this f ilm woul d mak e any horror fan giddy with glee. The actual mov ie doesn9;t liv e up to those high expect ations, b ut it's far from being all bad. Desi Ar naz Jr. (!) pl ays an author who m akes a crazy $2 0,000 be t with h is publisher that he could write a great novel in only 24 hours. To d o so, the pu blisher gives him the keys to an old aband oned house where he won't be disturbed. Not true. On ce he gets t here he is interr upted by a multitude of guests incl uding a fam ily wh ich consi sts of John Carrad ine, S heila Keith, Peter Cushing and Vincent Price. They are gathered there in a twisted family reu nion to re lease their brother from the ro om he 9;s been im prisoned in for forty years. Ev en Christopher Lee drops by as Corrigan, the man who has just p urcha sed the ho use. Soon, the y realize that the caged brother is loos e an d out for revenge. What a gr eat plotline and what a dream c ast! This m ovie should have bee n a hell of a lot better. It's ha rd to pinpoint the exact problems with the film, but I wo uld ve nture to say that the lack of li ghtin g wa s a major fault. Sure the ho use h as no electr icity but I think they to ok the tit le o f the movie a litt le too literally. Scene s after scenes are barely visible and the actors' faces are undecipherable. On ly the moments i n the main dinning hall are well lit. Also, the great actors are given v ery little t o do. Cushi ng gets a few chu ckle s as the scared brot her but Price, Lee and especially Ca rradine are somewhat wa sted here. Well, at least P rice gets the best line of the f ilm: `P lease don't interrupt me whil e I am so liloquizin g. 9; And on the p lus side, the story has enough twists and turns throug hout to keep on e`s interest and the ending, while a bi t of a cop-out, man ages to surprise. 从师父那里,听过很多故事的卫九锡看了眼 正在上香的人,就接着八卦道:“我师父说,八臂神猿的地宫下,压的是万生魔 神,那位魔神能够 分神万千 ,但有任何一个分神 在外,他都不可能死。 所以,镇他之人,必须 是个意志坚定,认了死理后,绝不会被外物影响的八臂神猿。”
