The Uninvited (1944)


A composer and his sister discover that the reason they are able to purchase a beautiful gothic seacoast mansion very cheaply is the house's unsavory past.

Superior ghost story made in good Hollywood tradition with some good Gothic atmsophere, a bit creepy, but also good-natured.

Halliwell**: "One of the cinema's genuine ghost stories, and a good one, though encased in a rather stiff production; it works up to a fine pitch of frenzy."

Maltin***1/2: "Eerie ghost susenser...No trick ending in this ingenious film..."
