Product Description

A mind-bending thriller from the golden age of occult cinema, The House of Seven Corpses follows a crew filming a horror movie at a crumbling mansion, once home to a cabal of satanists. When the actors speak incantations from the "Bardo Thodol", strange incidents befall the production, blurring the lines between reality and nightmare. Headstrong director Eric Hartman (John Ireland, Red River) defiantly presses onward, bullying his leading lady (Faith Domergue, This Island Earth), a young starlet (Carole Wells, Funny Lady), and the estate’s creepy caretaker (John Carradine, Bluebeard). As the cameras grind, the dead claw their way from the graves of a nearby cemetery, and The House of Seven Corpses reveals its terrifying secrets.

    3.0 out of 5 stars dated but entertaining with a few good laughs.
    Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2015

    this bears all the earmarks of horror films from the late 60's and early 70's 9this is from '74).

    it's not particularly frightening, far from it, but it is kind of like a time machine; it's so dated, hence the fascination and curiosity to see it through.
    It's almost a bit like "Dark Shadows"; not quite but it's kind of hokey in that way.
    Taking liberties with all things occult and spiritual in nature, they decided to the Tibetan Book of The Dead as a book of "dark magic' and necromancy, which could not be further from the truth, but it is typical of that time when the West was just beginning to learn about Eastern religions and the like.

    It's kind of ridiculous but certainly no worse than any of the recent indie films I've endured lately; in fact, in it's own strange antiquated way, it's better.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Definitive Version of this movie
    Reviewed in the United States on August 17, 2013
    Verified Purchase
    Several people mentioned having audio problems with the DVD of this film. If you contact Severin Films (which you can do via their Facebook page), you can get the address to send them back the defective DVD and they will send you a replacement. More recent copies shipped out from Severin should already have the defective disc replaced.

    Severin Films has given tender loving care to this old favorite of mine that I first saw on late night TV. Other copies aren't nearly as clear and it is important to understanding the plot in some cases that you be able to see clearly what is going on. Enter Severin with their BluRay disc of this movie. I won't spoil it but one scene shows something that really isn't mentioned. It's subtle but it kind of helps drive home a plot point and although the movie still contains a few lapses in logic, one part of the story is made clearer just for being able to see what's going on. Extras are good. Commentary by the producer is helpful and an old interview with John Carradine is nice and they even found a trailer for this. Only wish they'd included the great tag line somewhere on the package. The cover reproduces the poster of the film but leaves off the tag line which reads, "8 graves, 7 bodies, 1 killer...and he's already dead." If you are going to watch this movie, this should be the version you buy.

    4.0 out of 5 stars An Unexpected Find
    Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2013
    Verified Purchase
    This is a decent horror flick from the first half of the 1970s, from the age when Hammer was still the somewhat-fading standard and the horror genre had not yet become associated with the trend towards explicit gore and naked teenagers started by the impacts of "Halloween" and "Friday the 13th." Carradine chews the scenery a bit, but that shouldn't surprise anyone who's watched much horror from this era.

    One pleasant surprise for those interested in the history of the genre is that it marks the only other screen appearance in a horror film that I know about of the late Laurie Bartram, who played Brenda in the original "Friday the 13th." She isn't credited in this film, but there aren't that many tall sweet-faced brunettes in it. She must have been a person worth knowing, as I have never read or heard a single fellow cast or crew member say anything at all negative about her. After "Friday the 13th," finding her acting career in increasing conflict with her religious beliefs, she quit show business altogether, moved to Lynchburg, Virginia, and died of pancreatic cancer at the tragically young age of 49, so any sighting of her on screen is going to be a rarity.

    Most of today's horror films are about armies of zombies munching on the living or a "psycho slasher" stalking the local girls dormitory.
    This film has some great under-rated actors, an interesting "film within a film" subplot, haunting music and a steady build up of suspense.
    If you have a low I.Q., stick with today's movies.
    If you crave something more, see this film.

    2.0 out of 5 stars Why must there always be a dead animal?
    Reviewed in the United States on August 15, 2014
    Verified Purchase
    Pretty bad. The house is great, and is definitely the star. Some of the lines are fun, some of the business is fun, the acting is ok for a cheesy B movie. The pacing seems off to me, though, it looses any momentum it might be able to build in creepiness by being so slow. This ends up making it deeply dull, and efficacious if one needs an aid to sleep. Also, why must there always be a dead animal? The movie would have been just the same without the cat, so why was it necessary to have that dreadful painting and then kill the cat and tear it to pieces? Disappointing, given all the good reviews.

    Een avondje griezelen kan altijd best met een B-film. Wie houdt van sinistere omgevingen, onverklaarbare gebeurtenissen en het bovennatuurlijke zit goed bij deze film. Leuk weetje: John Carradine, de vader van David, Keith en Robert Carradine, speelt de rol van de geheimzinnige conciërge.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Dissapointing!
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 13, 2013
    Verified Purchase
    I had this film on an old NTSC video tape which still played ok and the picture wasn't too bad, but I wanted to see it improved and in widescreen, so bought this blu-ray.

    Daylight scenes aren't bad at all for such an obscure film, but the night ones, especially the opening, are really very grainy and look like poor VHS to me. The film also had awful day for night shooting with scenes jumping from darkness one minute to what looks like broad daylight as part of the same scene.
    The print also has a lot of marks and blemishes on it, and is hardly the sort of thing you'd expect a blu-ray to look like.
    A commentary track is interesting to listen to and a few odds and ends of extras make it ok for anyone casually interested in seeing this, but it is very tame and dull for the most part, with a few creepy scenes here and there to keep you watching.

    Nothing special, and not the super prisitine release I was expecting for this price.

    I saw this movie on tv several years ago, and although it certainly is a B movie, I thought it was a pretty fair flick for this genre.
    I was doing some searching online and when I discovered it was available from Amazon I was very pleasantly surprised and the price I thought was reasonable.
    Subsequently I ordered the product and it was delivered promptly and I enjoyed it thoroughly and I'm sure I'll continue to watch it in the future.
    I'm 77 years young and just love those old flicks.
