Best Haunted House Movie?
I have seen a lot of haunted house movies, and have always been disappointed by them. They never seem to live up to what I would expect a haunted house to be like! Most of them rely too much on over-the-top special effects, and take no time to develop any sense of creepiness (The Haunting, Rose Red, 13 Ghosts, House on Haunted Hill (the original was okay)). Even the ones that do a good job with atmosphere, really blow it on the actual hauntings (The Legend of Hell House, The Haunting of Hill House). Is there one I have not seen that is actually good? I like the stereotypical haunted house stuff. Not a sprawling mansion, but a good sized victorian home that is in great disrepair and located on a lot that is overgrown with dead trees. Cobwebs in all the corners, dust all over everything. Moans, groans, rattling of chains, pictures with moving eyes, corpses appearing in closets and disappearing shortly afterwards. That sort of thing.

I've seen a Haunted House film years ago, which was superb, but the problem is I cant remember what it's called, maybe it's the original The haunting.
There's a bit in it, where a woman is doing some chores around the living room and this realy creepy noise starts and she turns round and this cloudy apparition moves from one wall, hovers infront of her and then dissapears throught the opposite wall. There's plenty of other good scenes like this. There was another Ghost films I've seen aswell, but it maybe the same one as above again, where one of the residents of a haunted house gets taken to a replica/construction of her house, which has been built inside a hanger or large open building of some sort, and she spends the night inside this replica house, and the ghosts seam to have followed her to this replica from her original house. There are scientisis and doctors watching and monitoring whats going on from the outside via video camers and microphones etc. geeez I hate forgetting the titles of great films.
