9/10
Extremely weird, especially for its era

I saw this film as Terror House, though it has gone by other names in its "legacy". Yes, it's low-budget, yes it's old and yes the acting isn't exactly perfect. Still, Terror House deserves a better rep.

Regina is a college student home for the summer, and she gets a letter in the mail telling her she's won a vacation. Thrilled, she calls everyone and is on her way, but when she arrives at the inn she notices how strange the family is. Henry and Evelin and their adult grandson "Baby-John" have also invited over a few other girls. When the girls leave without saying goodbye, Regina believes the worst, but will she be next?

I loved the soundtrack, the acting wasn't too bad, there were funny scenes such as Baby-John's reaction to the shark, not to mention the secluded and creepy house. You could also call this film the Mini-Fridge of Doom.

I highly Recommend this film, but watch it with an open mind. If you grew up in the age of technology you may not appreciate it, but it's very nostalgic and funny and disturbing all at once. It has that Seventies TV movie feel to it as well.
