Joel Silver on Haunted Hill Sequel

Post-production has officially wrapped on Return to the House on Haunted Hill, according to PrimEdge, Inc. The sequel to 1999's House on Haunted Hill (which was directed by William Malone) is now expected to make its debut on DVD this September from Warner Bros.' Dark Castle Entertainment.

Newcomer Victor Garcia steps in at the helm this time with another ensemble cast including resident 'House' ghoul Jeffrey Combs who, we presume, will put the frightening on fellow co-stars Cerina Vincent (Cabin Fever), Erik Palladino (Dead & Breakfast), Andrew Pleavin (300) and Andrew Lee Potts (1408).

Producer Joel Silver tells ShockTillYouDrop.com that this follow-up was always geared for the direct-to-video market. "This is a good place to make a sequel for these films," he tells us. "We have to look at these different distribution systems to utilize the material in different ways. Having a direct-to-video sequel in this case is a good idea and if this one works, then maybe I'll make sequels to a lot of the [Dark Castle] films for direct-to-video."

Jeff Combs, cool... I am officially interested. But I hope they go the route of suspense and creepy and not over the top CGI like the first remake...

That CG crap in the first remake was ridiculous. I found the movie to be moderately entertaining (especially with Geoffrey Rush filling in for Vincent Price), but the CGI in the last 20 minutes really cheese-ified the whole thing. I hope this one is a little less tacky.

The first movie started out great, but the ending was so horrible it ruined the rest of it. Maybe they'll get it right this time.

I'll see it.
The first one really got the eerie down IMO.

I agree with most of y'all. I loved the first film until the very end. And how the fuck did they get off the window ledge? Anyways...I'll definitely be looking forward to seeing this one.

i have to agree with everyone else that the ending killed the whole movie for me, my girlfriend can actually sit through the first one with having me stop the movie.:mad: So i have watched it a couple of times, and will watch the second when it comes around

I always automatically fill in the missing spots of movies, so the ending didn't bother me.
I just assumed Someone would figure out they were missing and come find them or some random person driving around lost would see them and call the cops.
Or the way most living and dead are found...some bored kid wandering around stumbles upon them.
