Scene transition designer was working overtime on this family friendly version of Jupiter Ascending! I would genuinely love to write a reboot! Eddie Murphy still gets cucked by a ghost in mine! (Respect for the source material)
Yes. I'm giving The Haunted Mansion 3.5 stars. Now, please. Hear me out. This isn't nostalgia talking. I find The Haunted Mansion to be an excellent family film, one that has plenty of scares for children. Yes, they can handle it. Honestly, some people are so protective anymore. I saw Halloween (1978) when I was eight years old, and I'm not that weird.
The Awesome: In all seriousness, I really dig this movie. Eddie Murphy is funny in this, and he feels like he was invested in the script, and not completely cashing out (A Thousand Words). He brings comic-relief that works (for me at least), because if there wasn't humor in this, then it would just be a really…
Kids these days probably don’t even know that classics like this exist and that’s a scary reality.
people talk shit about the haunted mansion but “the guy is dead and he’s tryna get jiggy with my wife” is peak cinema
This contains little of the charm of the Disney ride — even during the portions copied straight from it. The only highlights: The Southern gothic production design and Terence Stamp as Ramsley, the mansion’s extremely droll butler.
Honestly this is the perfect kind of B-movie slop to kick off the October horror season
