Re: Haunting vs Haunted Hill

I would agree that if you are going to use the DVD as a "show-off" DVD, get the Haunting. Visually it is rather impressive, moreover, it has Dolby Digital EX just to show off that 6th (or 6th and 7th) speaker(s).

But...the lines and plot is laughable. Absolutely not suspenseful at all.

The Haunted Hill, on the other hand, while visually and aurally less impressive, does a little bit better job tugging the audience along for the ride. That is not to say it is a great movie, just done better than the Haunting.

Perhaps an issue of the lesser of two evils here.
