Clive Revill, the physicist, who attempts to clear the house of its evil, Pamela Franklin, the mental medium and Roddy McDowall the survivor of the previous incursion, are all first-rate. Mar 26, 2009 | Full Review…

If John Hough, the director, and his small, willing cast maintain mild tension during their harried visit to this haunted 'hell house,' the few chills they provide are of little help. May 9, 2005 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

This journey into a terrifying haunted house is one of metaphysics, exploring how disbelief, in many forms, can work against oneself. May 6, 2019 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review…

Despite the fact that it was released over 40 years ago, John Hough's The Legend of Hell House still remains one of the greatest and most effective haunted house films ever committed to celluloid. Jan 7, 2016 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

The last-act revelation is a let-down and even somewhat silly, but this remains a top-tier ghost movie, thanks mostly to director John Hough, who privileges atmosphere over logic. Sep 4, 2014 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

This intelligent, creepy and disturbing horror film preys upon the most primal aversions to discomposure and the paranormal that even the most staunch realists among us harbor, but hide. Aug 27, 2014 | Rating: 8/10 | Full Review…

John Hough does a fine job with the things-that-go-bump-in-the-night aspects of the material, he fails to breathe any life into Richard Matheson's woefully underdeveloped screenplay, which he adapted from his own novel. Dec 10, 2007 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

Incredibly flat-footed haunted house opus with even flatter ending. Aug 21, 2003 | Rating: 2/5

Richard Matheson "retooled" Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House, except where Ms.Jackson used subtlety, Matheson designs his story for the great unwashed. A scientist takes some spiritualists into a haunted house to see if the place is bonafide spooky. "We'll use science to check, see?" Probably still a viable formula. One of Roddy McDowell's better outings.
Super Reviewer
An interesting haunted house movie that invests in a gloomy atmosphere like a psychological horror film and benefits greatly from a chilling art direction and cinematography, although it isn't exactly scary nor memorable as a narrative.
Atmospheric chiller about a group of paranormal investigators who seek to find out the truth behind the hauntings of a mansion in rural England. Solid haunted house movie, creepy and with an ever-present sinister atmosphere. The major downside was that there were no scares, no jumpy moments and I was never having to watch it through my fingers in fear. It's a worthwhile watch though.
Classic but campy 70's horror with a bit of a twist. Delightfully dated for those seeking something nostalgic, Gothic and British.
