If you liked saw, this movie is going to have some familiar moments, especially when life and death are on the line when playing some crazy Las Vegas style action. The movie has a convoluted story line about a few friends that end up at a haunted casino and have to deal with some games of life and death. The main characters move through some interesting spots. I found that the idea of a haunted casino is not too unlike saw in a way, and while there are some great shots, that doesn’t make up for the follow through which has some of the worst acting I’ve seen in a long time. The movie features an interesting ambiance, with some very spooky settings. The movie takes casino games to a deadly level, which is one of the standouts in the genre, if there is such a genre as casino horror. This movie that I’m going to try to review is The Haunted Casino. This year looks to be starting out to be just as bad as every other year, and even though I love Sid Haig, he once again lets me down…or rather let’s his fans down. No matter what I do, no matter who I ask, I get to watch the worst of the worst more often then not.
When it comes to scary movies, let’s just say I have the worst luck.
