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.
cult爽片，坚定地将互相伤害进行到底，既血腥又喜感，结尾的反讽很有趣。原来是《死亡之雪》的导演，多年过去，还是那个味儿。
21年年度惊喜。剧情反转有趣，cult味十足
精彩绝伦了，又好笑又血腥，以及，好想去挪威！
从讽刺搞笑到惊悚血腥，插入伦理调味，再回归搞笑讽刺，这个旋转舞步实在华丽……平庸的导演，失业了的过气女演员，和几个越狱逃犯演出了一场囚徒困境的好戏，小成本把“戏剧化”演绎到极致了。
第一感觉是拖沓。剧本还有一丢丢意思，拍的水平不行。这种故事可能第一次看的人会比较喜欢吧，不过我已经看过「趣味游戏」那么高水平的了，再看这个觉得很乏味。
你就抡起桌球棍，揍得他们一个个脑浆炸裂哭着叫爸爸..
[视]R血，导演<死亡之雪><猎杀星期一>，多角色，多视角。前期节奏太慢，中期开始反转，后期集中血腥，整体偏文艺，不及预期。一个导演，一个演员，舔鞋尖致敬周星驰，结尾升华不错
要是有战争的话，你们都能从中收益的
7.2/10，这片太硬核了，血浆笑料齐飞。
都学学！都学学！每个细节都没浪费！螺丝壳里做道场！
剧本其实可以写的再好一点。3.5
7。血腥喜剧。嘲讽新能源汽车太搞笑啦，哈哈哈哈哈哈
脏活累活都让男主干了，男主的老父亲还跑来送人头
夫妻不仅相爱相杀，还会联手反杀。笑点不少，动作戏不少，反转也不少，是一部轻松下饭的爽片！
同时这个男主的前作「猎头游戏」也是好看的。
哇呜，这故事能拍成这样真可以了，这节奏这血浆，可以。
喜剧的内核是现实，抉择时刻，一系列权衡在飞速计算，爆笑又真实，所以小金库是真是诈，想问也不能问，事发经过，能说也不可说。
前半部分反转反转再反转比较有意思，后半部分番茄酱遍地的cult片打斗略微乏味
前半小时画面配色分分钟想截图，后半小时笑出了猪叫声。
三星半，维尔科拉截至目前巅峰作还是《死亡之雪2》，有那种精品b级片在前，之后这两部都显得有点下滑，不过还是有内味儿
