The Legend of Hell House

You know, for a horror from the early 70's...this ain't bad. In fact, I'd go so far as to say, it was good.

Plot: A cranky old rich fella in a wheelchair employs a physicist, a mental medium (not handicapped-just mental), a physical medium and the physicist's mrs goes along for the ride, to investigate life after death. To do this, the gang are paid £100,000 for their services and they jump in a limo to Hell House. Seems this house was owned by a debauched fellow who took part in every deviant activity known to man (kinda like Larry Flint meets Aleister Crowley), who also killed 27 guests one night back in the 1950's. Now, 20 years on, the sole surviving member of another expedition to the house- Roddy McDowall (physical medium) is going back.

Is that such a good idea one might ask? One would be correct in asking.

Budget: $?

Gross: $2,500,000

Fun Fact: Based on the novel- Hell House, by Richard Matheson (I am Legend/Omega Man). The voice of the debauched fella was Alfred from the Tim Burton Batman.
