《鬼屋之影》是由知名导演皮特·沃克 执导的一部喜劇片,Vincent Price Christopher 等倾情出演,该片讲述了: A quick glimpse at the cast for this film would make any horror fan gidd y with glee . Th e actual movie d oesn't live up to thos e high expectation s, but it's far from being all bad. Desi Arnaz Jr. (!) plays an author who makes a cr azy $20,000 bet with his publi sher that he could wr ite a great novel in only 24 hour s. To do so, the publisher gives him the keys t o an o ld abandoned house wh ere he won39;t be disturbed. Not true. Once he gets there he is interrupte d by a multitude of guests including a family which consi sts of John Carradine, Sheila Keith, Peter Cushin g and Vincent Price. They ar e gathered there in a twisted family re union to release their brot her from the roo m he's been imp risoned in for f orty years. Even Chris topher Lee d rops by as Corrigan, the man who has just pu rchase d the house. Soon, t hey realize that the caged brother is l oose a nd out for revenge. Wh at a great plotlin e and what a dream cast! This movie should have been a hell of a lot better. It' s hard to pinpoin t the exact problems with t he film, bu t I w ould vent ure to sa y that th e lac k of lig hting wa s a major fault. Sure the hous e has no electr icit y but I thin k they t ook the tit le of the movie a l ittle too lite rally. Scene s after scenes are barely visible and the acto rs' faces are un decip herable. Only the moments in the main di nning hall ar e well lit. Also, the g reat actors are giv en very litt le to do. Cushing gets a few chu ckles as the scared brother but Price, Lee and especially Carradine are somewhat wasted here. Well , at least Price gets t he best line of the film: `Please don't int errupt me while I am s oliloqui zing .' An d on the plu s side, the story has enough twists and turns t hroughout to keep one`s in terest and t he ending, w hile a bit of a cop-out, manages t o surprise. 陆灵蹊搂住小家伙时,心里软软的,“我们也 好想你,放心,爷爷会上来的,青主儿和葵葵也会上来的,以后还会 有敖象、小贝他们,对了,他们也有礼 物给你噢,神神秘秘地封着,也没让我 看,回头你瞅瞅,要是宝石什 么的,也分我两 块玩。”
