Nonureva Really Surprised!

Mjeteconer Just perfect...

Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

LeonLouisRicci Goreful, Zombie/Slasher/Haunted House Movie from Acclaimed Italian Auteur Lucio Fulci that is Ripe with Full-Blown Fulci Flourishes.It is a Horror Feast for Famished Fans of this Type and is Loudly Lauded with Endless Praise and every Frame has been Studied and Analyzed Ad Nauseum, Savouring Morsel after Mosel from a Master of Mayhem that Serves Up what He Promises to the Devotees.What it is for those Not Initiated into the Cult is a Sleek and Sick Study in Human Excretion, Blood and Guts to be Exact. But it also has Supernatural Elements and other Creepy Considerations.The Cinematography is Outstanding as are the Cobweb Draped Sets and it has a Surreal Appeal and is Above Average in the Genre. The Acting is Typical B-Grade Screaming and looking justifiably Terrified at the Goings On, Crying, Sweating, and Eyes Wide Open.Speaking of Eyes, there is an Over-Abundance of Peeper Close-Ups and is only Eclipsed by the Over-Over-Abundance of Character Names being said Over-Over and Over again to the Point of Irritating Distraction. Steve, Steve, Steve, Bob, Bob, Bob, Bob , Anne, Anne, Anne...Sheesh!If You can sit through that "Fingers on the blackboard" Irritant and find it Tolerable, this is a Must Watch for Horror and Cult Movie Enthusiasts. Fulci, along with Mario Bava, and Dario Argento has an Enormous Fan Base and Following. This is as good as any to see what the Fuss Over Fulci is all about.

MartinHafer When you see my score of 3, keep in mind that I am not a particular fan of hack 'em up gore films. And clearly, "The House By The Cemetery" is a film of this genre. To me, this film is no better than the typical hack and slash film.The film begins with a family moving into the old Freudstein house. Some awful things happened there years ago but exactly what and why, who knows. Throughout the film there is a lot of foreboding as well as the little boy seeing an apparently invisible or dead friend. Ultimately, it all ends in a messy bloodbath in which a one-armed man rips the crap out of most everyone though who and why really aren't explained....he's just some freak that likes to hack people apart.The bottom line is that if you are looking for death, blood and mayhem, director Lucio Faldi has created a film for you. But, if you want more than lots of fake blood and gore, you too will feel bored by the whole thing.

Rainey Dawn In a few parts, this film reminds me of The Amityville Horror and The Shining (in a roundabout way) yet it's nothing like either film. The creature in the basement puts me in mind of Leatherface lol.The film is a bit gory and bloody - but in a good way. The story is very interesting. The ending of the film is quite strange and I didn't care for it that much. The rest of the film was really good though.As far as the dubbing into English, I didn't have a problem with it. I'm sure they could have found a better voice for Bob Boyle's (Giovanni Frezza) part but the voice used was okay enough.This one would be a good film the Halloween season - it's a decent horror film overall.6.5/10

Paul Mayhem One thing that jumps out at me when watching movies like this one, Italian Horror films have the best music. Haunting melodies that engross the viewer and pull you into the film. House By The Cemetery is no exception. This story of the Haunted Freudstein House is made all the more memorable and creepy thanks to the music. Some of the acting is a bit stilted here, possibly due to the horrible dubbing of the children. Little Bob may be voiced by the worst dubbing actor in cinema history. It actually hurts the film. I suggest watching the original Italian language version if possible. A bunch of standout gore scenes and a thick atmosphere really help to make this one a classic, and the story is pretty good, keeping interest until the end. The ending itself is a bit of a head scratcher, but I am sure there is some deep, metaphysical meaning that I just don't get. Overall, a good film, and a great addition to any Horror collection.
