Hell House was a peculiar experience for me. I bought the movie on DVD at a small record shop, since I found the summary on the back intriguing enough. I'm glad I have it in my library. It's something that I know I will pull out when I feel like seeing something balanced. I'm willing to admit that I'm predisposed to a position on this sort of subject, although that does not cloud my judgment of what is actually a very evenhanded approach to this subject matter. In fact, I think I found myself more likely to get bored since they clearly aren't picking the best or the worst of each person's dialog. Some of the things that the subjects say are completely reasonable. We're all just a little clouded by the way we've chosen to view the world.
In fact, the only viewer who would be truly bored by this movie would one who is not at all interested in the subject matter. On the technical end of the review, most of the others here have claimed that this has been poorly shot and edited. The editing could use a little tweaking, and I'd like some subtitles when appropriate, but other than that, I found nothing truly lacking in technical aspects.
