Kitty Winn in The House That Would Not Die (1970)

Review by Milk_Tray_Guy

The House That Would Not Die

6/10

Entertaining time passer

Made for TV supernatural movie starring Barbara Stanwyck, Richard Egan, and Kitty Winn. Stanwyck and Winn play an elderly woman and her young niece who move into a house in Gettyburg, Pennsylvania, that Stanwyck has just inherited (and which was built around the time of the War of Independence). Before long the two women begin to suspect the house is haunted. Their new neighbour, Egan, introduces them to a woman who claims to be a medium and who wants to hold a seance there. During the seance the niece is seemingly possessed by the spirit of a young woman. Other disturbances in the following days, including doors opening on their own and disembodied voices on the wind, lead them to investigate the tragic history of the house, and uncover a wrong done many years before.

Stanwyck and Egan are both good. Stanwyck actually gets thrown around a fair bit, and - despite being well into her 60s - does all the falls herself (she was already an honorary member of the Hollywood Stuntmen's Hall of Fame!). Winn, on the other hand, is really annoying, seriously overplaying her 'emotional' scenes (to the point where it's hard to have any sympathy for her). Unfortunately, the story is also fairly predictable, and the few visual effects do give away the TV budget. But it's got atmosphere, and is an easy watch. 6/10.
