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.
血腥、性、血浆、暴力、愤怒、嫉妒、懵懂。年轻的时候就要疯狂做哎，不然到老了就后悔去吧！垂死的老太婆和老太公因为得不到性快感而杀掉来他们家拍A片的年轻人（没错故事就这么简单）。太好看了！一枪爆头、推下湖泊被鳄鱼吃掉、砍手指，最后老太公操老太婆，幸存的女孩躲在床底，太好笑了哈哈哈哈戏剧死了！！！let fuck every day and night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
刻奇、异端、刻板，短促而激烈的剧情，是一个系列的开端景象。
thriller的画面过于刺激 拍床戏清新特俗看笑了我 中间插的两段音乐 简直是神来之笔 弹吉他围在一起聊天说当有摄像机开启时就不算出轨 镜头以外的床戏只属于老年人
真的还蛮惊喜的！人不管到几岁对欲望的渴望表现的也是很真实，另外OST也好听！
老人造型太糟糕了。不过拍得还算很讲究的，最后碾压老妇加一星。
我只看到的是一部自作聪明，毫无灵魂地进行借鉴的普通恐怖片
身强力壮的帅哥美女们竟被一对步履蹒跚，行将就木的老夫妻给灭了。
修正主义的德州电锯，内容丰富程度远胜前辈，血腥和恐怖气氛到位了，老妇床戏恐怖至极！！！
一个拍黄片的小团队，在荒郊野岭租了一个厂房拍片，不料激起了房东老太太的少女心和对黄片女演员的嫉妒心。为了泯灭黄片团队的青春活力，两位老房东开始了暴力行动...这片子又黄又暴力，极度引起我的心理不适。幸好今日我已是老男人，若是孩童时期，不晓得会不会带给我一辈子的心理阴影。
前一個小時很好，但當進入黑夜，殺戮開始後，還是難免落入了俗套。"I will not accept a life I do not deserve."
如果我是女主角，在影片最后的情节里我才不会用轮胎爆头这种俗套的手法泄恨，我会直接开车直接压断她的小腿让她哇哇叫，在她满口咒骂声中伸出手比着中指扬长而去。#男人老了记得量力而性以免一命呜呼。
老年人性爱也没什么猎奇的，就是很普通的猎杀片
年轻是美，是永恒，是无限的生命与活力，谁不渴望呢
剪辑:★★★
失望。剪辑频繁炫技，但仍跳不出毫无进展的文本，人物无脑行为逻辑就已经令人咂舌。再说回文本，将性色附身于砍杀已不是新鲜事，逐个砍杀过程更是没劲之极，像极了垂老之人的苟延残喘，只会更进一步感叹人物行动逻辑太蠢。砍杀核心仍是不洁，但垂老肉体的引入是想引起反应强烈的生理不适。幸存之女的最后那段互文，画蛇添足。总结：在无法文本深入的情况下，视听并没有改进，无数概念导向德州电锯杀人狂，却不得不说是一次浅显而没劲的模仿秀！
emmm……美国的恐怖片大概都是这种套路了
年轻是美，是永恒，是无限的生命与活力，谁不渴望呢
老人造型太糟糕了。不过拍得还算很讲究的，最后碾压老妇加一星。
惊吓指数:★★★★
这不是一部优秀的恐怖片和砍杀爽片，却在类型片里带入了一点点新意和思考。一帮外人眼中“业内人士”和一对怀有电影梦想的恋人，在这场杀戮里进行了性与爱观念的碰撞。性与爱是分离的，又是密不可分的，在导演女友思想“进步”的同时，自认为思想进步的导演却陷入了深深的困境，一场嘴与心的悖论上演了。知道与不知道，看见与没看见毕竟是不一样的，亲手拍摄女友与其他男人“真枪实弹”，何尝不是内心的杀戮。影片里老年人的性爱与欲望可能是比杀戮本身还要恐怖的元素，明明是很现实的问题却又是最恐怖的地方。就像一些恐怖片里的鬼，明明是人的外表，却能吓到人。可能“不存在”或未知的东西总是会让人感到恐惧。影片中部分运镜、音效、剪辑都可圈可点，黄暴血浆加吊诡，米娅·高斯一人分饰两角还真没看出来，三星半。
