     I'm beginning to think I'm the only alt.horrorian who actually *like* the actor Sean Connery.

     Supposedly there's a remake of House on Haunted Hill coming out in the fall. I haven't read a thing about it anywhere, other than the fact that its in development. Any Alt.horrorians heard anything about this project? Without Vincent Price, it probably won't be too worthwhile, IMHO.

     See, I'm not like some of the alt.horrorians who hate aping. I have no complaints if something is copied if it's well copied.

     I was surprised at how well the film cleaned up. The print looks great considering the source. And yes, it is uncut. Our own alt.horrorian Craig H. wrote a very nice review on our site at:

     *shrug* It's up to you, man. Assuming you live under a democracy, it's entirely within your rights to make yourself look like a complete turdchunk, not only before the alt.horrorians, but also in front of those posters over here whom relish such self-immolation. Have at it, numbnuts.
