There was also a 1928 film, "The Haunted House" which was loosely based
on the 1924 Broadway play of the same name; no dialog, just post-synched
sounds and songs.
As far as ratings of all these movies, I would rank "The Haunting" (original) as #1, a true supernatural horror classic, scared the livin' bejeebees outta
me, the "bulging door" scene is unsurpassed. In fact, the movie scared
me much more than the novel.
"House of Usher" was decent; "The Legend of Hell House" was good too; but
I liked Matheson's novel, "Hell House" better, yes, the diminutive Eric
Belasco had one monstrous ego!
The original "House On Haunted Hill" is a camp classic and was not intended
to deliver the dramatic impact of the aformentioned movies; it's simply a
fun, entertaining film. Vincent Price really hams it up; but my favorite
performance goes to Elisha Cook. - AH
