Title: Razzle-Dazzle Special Effects and Nothing Else
Review: Unlike the smart and creepy 1963 original (of the same title) or the spine-tingling Shirley Jackson novel (titled "The Haunting of Hill House"), Jan De Bont's brainless thriller "The Haunting" beats you mercilessly over the head with great special effects, but leaves you wondering where all the story and logic went. The film's razzle-dazzle visuals make it somewhat fun, but it's unescapably a downer.
