Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Intcatinfo A Masterpiece!

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Paul Magne Haakonsen I enjoy the Elvira movies, no doubt about that. But "Elvira's Haunted Hills" does suffer under the 'curse' of being a sequel - that's being it fails to fully live up to the level of its predecessor "Elvira: Mistress of the Dark".It does still have the same kind of dark comedy with undertones of sexual nature and just straight downright silliness. But this is, of course, what is part of the Elvira universe and character, and it is what the fans like, that and her in-your-face big, well, you know... charm and wits.What puzzles me about the story in the 2001 movie "Elvira's Haunted Hills" is why it is set in 1851 Transylvania. Well, aside from the obvious B-movie reference to Dracula, of course, and for the Gothic backdrop, but other than that I didn't get it.Storywise, then "Elvira's Haunted Hills" falters a bit compared to the 1988 movie "Elvira: Mistress of the Dark", both in contents and in progression. That being said, don't get me wrong, it is not a bad story, far from it. It just wasn't at the same level of the first movie.Cassandra Peterson performs as to be expected, I mean, she is Elvira in the flesh, after all. But also Richard O'Brien (playing Lord Vladimere Hellsubus) and Heather Hopper (playing Lady Roxanna Hellsubus) really performed quite well in this movie.The comedy in "Elvira's Haunted Hills" was a bit more subtle than the comedy in the 1988 predecessor, which was a shame, because it made it a tad less enjoyable. The scene that had me laughing the most was one of the last scene with the sinking castle, it was just such a wonderful spoof of Titanic.All in all "Elvira's Haunted Hills" is an enjoyable movie, and a movie that any fan of Elvira should have in their movie collection. And while not embodying the same Halloween atmosphere as the 1988 movie, "Elvira's Haunted Hills" is still worth putting into a Halloween movie marathon just for the sake of it being Elvira!

angelicseven While most people like Elvira, her fans will be disappointed in this movie, which seem dull and not funny or scary at all. It is like all the B-movies she hosts on TV that she scoffs and pokes jokes at. It's like Elvira is laughing at her own jokes. Not something enjoyable enough to watch over and over. This movie really needs to be redone better. It lacks the kind of quality a fan would expect from Elvira and any regard for her vampire side, which should of been developed more; there's just absolutely nothing for fans to follow. At least in Elvira Mistress Of The Dark we got to see something interesting than just her beautiful assets... her vampire looking car.

Taf Greenstreet The BEST worst movie ever! This movie was fantastic! Anyone who can watch "horror" movies and have a good laugh at the corny stuff that makes it to screen today should see this movie. And best of all, it's not a "dirty" movie with lots of unnecessary nudity and bad language like some other horror movies or even spoofs of horror movies. No gag is too cliché; no pun is unworthy of being exploited; no opportunity for a cheap laugh passed up. But this isn't a kids' movie! Elvira is the Mistress of the Night for good reason, and she makes sure you know why...while keeping the rating a very tame PG13. But she still manages to make sure that everything is in good fun!

spoogy It seems that all of the negative comments about this film are based on the fact that most of the jokes are old. That's the point, isn't it? Elvira is supposed to be campy, and so is this movie.This movie shines because Peterson's performance is, as always, superb. Her timing and gleeful delivery make the film impossible for anyone with an appreciation for the subject matter to resist. The only possible complaint that a fan may have is that, by placing the character out of the ordinary, she becomes somehow less extraordinary, and feels almost normal in comparison to her surroundings. Even then, though, she's hilarious.As for claims that it was too bad for a major studio, well, that's really an impossibility, isn't it? The films Elvira hosts are nearly always major studio releases. The problems with shopping this movie around to studios and distributors is that the movie is completely built around the character, but the industry would likely only have been able to pay Peterson as an actress and writer, in spite of the fact that her copyrights are the basis of the film.
