The Legend of Hell House
1973 · TMDB 6.6
Directed by John Hough
A team consisting of a physicist, his wife, a young female psychic, and the only survivor of the previous visit are sent to the notorious Hell House to prove or disprove survival after death. Previous visitors have either been killed or gone mad, and it is up to the team to survive a full week in isolation, and solve the mystery of the Hell House.
Why it matters
John Hough's adaptation of Richard Matheson's novel sends a physicist and two mediums into the Belasco house, a sealed mansion with a history of depravity. The house is treated as an experiment, and the experiment turns on its observers.
