• A Classic, Old-fashioned, Spooky Ghost Story
  THE UNINVITED is a true classic, one of the best haunted house stories that I have ever seen. Filmed in black and white in 1944, the film relies on the play of light and shadow, an eerie underscore, and suggestion and innuendo to scare the audience.

There are some fine movies in this genre, "The Haunting (1963)" "The Ghost and Mrs Muir" and "The Others" are just a few, but this tops my list.
  Why this is not on DVD boggles the mind. Universal, please put this on... more info
