House on Haunted Hill
House on Haunted Hill
William Castle directed this droll, twisty horror tale about a suspicious millionaire (the irreplaceable Vincent Price) who rents a haunted house to throw a party for his untrustworthy wife, offering his guests $10,000 each to remain in the locked house all night. Castle gave this old-fashioned chiller one of his most famous and inventive gimmicks— “Emergo,” which involved dangling a full-sized plastic skeleton over the theater audience.
