I haven't seen any of these films so I can't vote.

The Others - 3

Haven't seen the other two, or if I did I don't remember it. (That happens with me sometimes.) I liked the HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL with Vincent Price quite a bit, though.

I recommend The Others wholeheartedly. It's a good, solid, period, old-fashioned, atmospheric ghost story with a nice little twist at the end. You will love it.


Scare-O-Meter scores (out of 5)

The Others (based on 10 ratings) - 2.4
House on Haunted Hill (remake, based on 6 ratings) - 1.3
What Lies Beneath (based on 6 ratings) - 1.8


So, The Others earns a watchable rating while the other two fail to impress.

All 3 films added to the opening post, under the Scare-O-Meter.

The Changeling is really good. It was a relatively creepy ghost story and George C Scott gave a terrific performance as Dr. John Russell (the beginning is especially interesting). Despite seeming a little aged (not that there is anything wrong with that), this film definitely has some really effective scenes. I have not seen the other two films, but I would definitely recommend seeing this film because it is a classic. As for my scoring:

The Changeling: 3

Ghost Story: Haven't seen

Lady in White: Haven't seen
