A quick glimpse at the cast for this film would make any horror fan giddy with glee. The actual movie doesn't live up to those high expectations, but it's far from being all bad. Desi Arnaz Jr. (!) plays an author who makes a crazy $20,000 bet with his publisher that he could write a great novel in only 24 hours. To do so, the publisher gives him the keys to an old abandoned house where he won't be disturbed. Not true. Once he gets there he is interrupted by a multitude of guests including a family which consists of John Carradine, Sheila Keith, Peter Cushing and Vincent Price. They are gathered there in a twisted family reunion to release their brother from the room he's been imprisoned in for forty years. Even Christopher Lee drops by as Corrigan, the man who has just purchased the house. Soon, they realize that the caged brother is loose and out for revenge.
What a great plotline and what a dream cast! This movie should have been a hell of a lot better. It's hard to pinpoint the exact problems with the film, but I would venture to say that the lack of lighting was a major fault. Sure the house has no electricity but I think they took the title of the movie a little too literally. Scenes after scenes are barely visible and the actors' faces are undecipherable. Only the moments in the main dinning hall are well lit. Also, the great actors are given very little to do. Cushing gets a few chuckles as the scared brother but Price, Lee and especially Carradine are somewhat wasted here. Well, at least Price gets the best line of the film: `Please don't interrupt me while I am soliloquizing.' And on the plus side, the story has enough twists and turns throughout to keep one`s interest and the ending, while a bit of a cop-out, manages to surprise.
我比较认同前期妈妈的看法....为什么全家人要强行组合这对CP....好像在拼命给你洗脑“你俩多般配啊。”最后自己都信了“我俩好像真的挺般配”.....
故事老套，虽然黑白配但是黑人小哥太tm养眼了！
看预告片吸引进来的，但是剧情有点平淡，看完之后没有那种意犹未尽的感觉。羡慕男主有一群这么爱着他的家人们，和侄女们一起跳舞那段全剧最佳。
The holiday vibe we need.
美版我可能不会爱你，戏有点平，家庭氛围好棒
轻松欢乐，合家欢爆米花电影，不必太纠结剧情什么的，开开心心看个圣诞欢乐电影而已。
Netflix倒是每年一部LGBT圣诞电影，越来越Open的社会，非异性恋也会逐渐被接受。虽然自己是直女一枚，但仍然觉得在允许与接受范围里，选择“爱之所向”，没有问题。
人设和故事那么浪漫的James&Peter be，突然和jm搞上，not convincing
给这部打个高分～冬天就应该在被窝里看甜甜的电影，没有觉得黑白配有什么违和感，节奏也很舒服，总之有被甜到
一眼望到头的HE，相伴多年岂是一句好朋友能够讲清楚的，又有多少人以朋友的名义爱着对方却不敢踏出在一起的第一步，其实不用担心会不会分手，多年朋友只有在一起才是最终结局吧......
也不好笑 也不感动 也不浪漫 & 这片名搞谐音梗吗 & 筹备三个月的campaign重来只需要随便手机拍两张照就好了做social的人看了会不会吐血 （简直浪费我的热红酒）
适合快进看舔屏看帅哥（I mean luke（BTW 我说怎么这么眼熟原来男主是直弯好基友里的
Not bad for a staycation Christmas
Netflix holiday三部曲里最行的
合家欢电影，难免有一些浮在空中美丽泡沫的感觉，再通俗些就是角度片面，演员不错！部分时候有一点啰嗦！
和玥宝。Why are we still watching Christmas movies mid-January?
男主居然进入我的观影盲区了 也太帅了吧。btw 实在是没控制住想到了逃出绝命镇
男主在想什么？Luke居然不行？我分分钟撅起屁股可以😌
cliche but sweet，好久没看到Micheal urie了欸
有没有一种爱情 不需要读心术？节庆电影 甜蜜就好
