The audience for this rickety spoof is probably limited to three groups: diehard fans of Elvira, cultists of '60s horror (specifically the Edgar Allan Poe and Hammer offerings), and people who believe rim-shot, borscht belt humor ought to be brought back. The last group apparently includes Cassandra Peterson, the comedian who dreamed up Elvira; her fondness for vaudeville one-liners is either groan-worthy or infectious, depending on your tolerance for such things. Sample: "The village people say this castle is evil." "Ah, who listens to the Village People any more?" Ouch. Her Mae-West-meets-Vampira shtick wears surprisingly well at feature length (1988's Elvira, Mistress of the Dark is actually a pretty good time), although this movie simply runs out of material halfway through. Bonus: Rocky Horror genius Richard O'Brien contributes some amusing ravings as a mysterious Carpathian castle owner, pining away for a dead wife who suspiciously resembles our heroine. --Robert Horton

Funnier Than the First.......2007-05-20

If all of you remember Elvira's first movie, you are truly going to love this movie a lot (maybe better than the first movie). If your into comedy/horror and your a true fan of Elvira and her comedy type ways, then you will enjoy this film. This film is dedicated to the late Vincent Price (which the movie focuses on most of Price's classics) and Elvira does what she does best by hamming it up and poking fun with her "dark" humor ways. This film is truly a blast. Recommended to all Elvira fans!

OK, OK it's trashy!.......2007-01-06

It may be trash but it is really cute trash. Just the thing to watch while passing out candy on October 31. More then a few grins for the price!

Ease of acquiring hard to find item........2006-11-15

The product was quickly delivered in excellent condition. Amazon com makes it easy to find items for purchase and the purchasing process is very well done.

You can't help but love her.......2006-10-30

I love Elvira, but this movie isn't one of her best efforts. She is fun and delightful through the whole thing, but the script is very weak. She has the best lines and is quite hilarious herself. Take this movie for what it is worth, goofy, silly fun and don't look for anything deeper.

Elvira always pleases.......2006-08-01

This is a fun movie. Not as great as Elvira's first movie but still will have you wanting more. I actually bought this movie first and THEN went back and bought Mistress of the Dark. Haunted Hills is Fun,dark, sassy and a little bit sexy. Why the hell Hollywood hasn't used Elvira more i don't know. Worth buying from Amazon. I will watch it again.
