A quick glimpse at the cast for this film would make any horror fan giddy with glee. The actual movie doesn't live up to those high expectations, but it's far from being all bad. Desi Arnaz Jr. (!) plays an author who makes a crazy $20,000 bet with his publisher that he could write a great novel in only 24 hours. To do so, the publisher gives him the keys to an old abandoned house where he won't be disturbed. Not true. Once he gets there he is interrupted by a multitude of guests including a family which consists of John Carradine, Sheila Keith, Peter Cushing and Vincent Price. They are gathered there in a twisted family reunion to release their brother from the room he's been imprisoned in for forty years. Even Christopher Lee drops by as Corrigan, the man who has just purchased the house. Soon, they realize that the caged brother is loose and out for revenge.
What a great plotline and what a dream cast! This movie should have been a hell of a lot better. It's hard to pinpoint the exact problems with the film, but I would venture to say that the lack of lighting was a major fault. Sure the house has no electricity but I think they took the title of the movie a little too literally. Scenes after scenes are barely visible and the actors' faces are undecipherable. Only the moments in the main dinning hall are well lit. Also, the great actors are given very little to do. Cushing gets a few chuckles as the scared brother but Price, Lee and especially Carradine are somewhat wasted here. Well, at least Price gets the best line of the film: `Please don't interrupt me while I am soliloquizing.' And on the plus side, the story has enough twists and turns throughout to keep one`s interest and the ending, while a bit of a cop-out, manages to surprise.
儿时果然是看过的，83年的？那时有彩色了吗？做成这样，真是了不起
在那个物质最匮乏的年代里，这些最可敬、可爱、才华横溢的动画艺术家们创作出了最杰出的文艺作品。也许当时的人们身体是空虚的，但他们的精神却绝不像今天我们这一代人一般饥饿。
社会议题、本格推理、青春热血，要啥有啥，原来蜡笔小新剧场版这么厉害
在选修课上看的~~~就以现在的眼光来看~这部二十多年前的动画片依旧是国产动画业的翘楚~~~
作为一个80后，小时候没看过，现在回过头来看，根本看不进去啊！远不如《葫芦娃》和《大闹天宫》精彩！
超棒的，这个令人窒息的世界，就由你来改变吧，
可叹的是心系苍生的袁公成了天庭罪人，本应流传的天书却被藏匿三千年。幽默诙谐充满讽刺，明察秋毫中笑谈人间百态。小时候看这部影片看到的是童趣，快乐与想象，现在看更像是一部魔幻现实主义动画影片。影片改编自平妖传，刻画了从帝王，官员，僧人，神仙到妖怪，商人，农民等一系列乱世众生相。玉帝端坐于天庭，不知人间疾苦；官员尖酸贪婪，搜刮民脂民膏；僧人六根不净，商人见风使舵，妖怪招摇撞骗，皇帝醉心玩乐。这部影片实在是，寓言化，脸谱化，心系苍生。
TV：童年超级喜欢的动画之一，还买过书来看呢！
袁公：三千年兢兢业业不曾犯错，传真理刀山火海敢为人先。
好象是这个月十几号看的
小时候看过很多遍的动画片，现在想起国产动画片依旧觉得是经典。故事性很强，人物特点鲜明，三个笨狐狸很逗趣，印象深刻。
在我心目中，这部确实是第一。动画长片中，中国文化载体的顶峰。
我特爱看。从小就记住一句。人不可貌相。海水不可斗量。
211113/SFC铜川路店/30元；很庆幸本人记忆力差，对我来说几乎是新片；一开场宽荧幕的画幅，浓郁的色彩和完美的音质真的震撼到我，4K修复的不只是赛璐璐胶片，还包括重新配音和上交的重新混音（Rerecording)；感觉到中段部分画面很有胶片感，具体表现为接近黑色线框的色彩与内部平涂色彩有色差衔接不均匀；角色的形象想象力丰富，脸部线条有点现代；但人物的塑造以现在的眼光有点弱：蛋生不光没有成长，甚至角色本身也是可有可无，设想如果只是袁公因天书中的一句话，而决定恩泽苍生，化身凡人，振蝗灾，降甘露，本剧情节也完全可以成立，因为本片戏份最重的是老狐狸，而且三只狐狸的剧情与蛋生的交集不大，如果有续集蛋生苦练本领上天救师父就…像大闹天宫啦，可是珠玉在前，没有比较没有差距，所以还是要扣一颗星。
成年人在一人包场观影的电影院里睡着了💤，可能过了儿童的年纪再看低幼动画片就感觉十分无聊，自己在侮辱自己智商吧。
看袁公和蛋生额头上的一样的月牙logo，明显是一家人嘛！
既有故事性又有娱乐性，各个人物都立得很饱满，毫无疑问给五星。从天书象征的privilege 到贪婪的官差、向往公正的民，再到皇的高高在上，每一场戏都很值得推敲，结合出品年代来看，立意实在大胆又先锋。最后要夸一夸修复团队，看完幕后才知道很多音轨是完全重制的，太用心了！！😭
算是小时候最喜欢的。刚重温一遍，却觉得没意思了。发现再美好的回忆，如果不经过自己重新组装和粉饰，也会索然无味。
当年中国本土动画水准绝对一流，再瞅瞅现在...中国动画的出路就在这些老动画身上了...
中国动画的经典之作，不过现在看起来真的就有点没那么给劲了……
