House of the Long Shadows
(GB 1982)               

A young writer accepts a dare to write his latest novel in a haunted house, where there are unexpected visitors...
Poorly made horror spoof with wooden young leads, almost redeemed by its guest veterans all on screen together for the first time.

Producers: Mennahem Golan, Yoram Globus.
Director: Pete Walker.

HOUSE OF THE LONG SHADOWS (1982). In the decade of slasher movies, the makers seemed to have forgotten how to make a proper haunted house film. John Carradine, Sheila Keith, Peter Cushing and Vincent Price reflect on an older era.
