this be the type of movie where it actually hurt to acknowledge that it really and really suck . i normally sanctify stuff like this . early 70 grindhouse flick with scrumptious sound title and a schlocky low budget atmosphere usually rock . house of seven corps appear to dispose of even more trump and since the cast be a gathering of great genre veteran ( include john carradine and john ireland and faith domergue ) and the filming location ( the titular house and the graveyard ) be obviously very expedient for a gloomy tale of terror . the film open with it absolute great and most hauntingly memorable sequence and though sadly enough theyre the only one that qualify a such . the credit be a splendid montage and complete with freakish color effect and eerie freeze frame and illustrate how the titular house receive it notorious reputation . the last seven owner be mysteriously murder here and the credit montage gleefully exhibit their final moment . someone fall down the balcony screaming and a lady drowns in her bathtub and and another female body hang dangle from the ceiling and four more macabre tableau . needless to say the house be curse and the awkward behavior of t caretaker mr. price ( carradine ) only fortify this reputation . in other word and the house form the ideal turf for the acclaimed director eric hartman ( john ireland ) to shoot his satanic horror film project . the film within film structure be what mainly cause house of seven corps to be so boring and uneventful . a lot of movie material be waste on crew member put film spool in the camera and drag around cable or even bad faith domergue and charles macaulay portray horridly intolerable actor stereotype . the plot finally get a little interesting ( only a little and mind you ) when one of the character read some line from an occult book and accidentally awake a rot corpse in the backyard . the asthmatic ( judge by the noise he produce ) zombie slowly head for the house and kill the entire movie crew and reminiscent of how the previous seven turn into corps . after a running time of approximately 60 minute and the film suddenly turn from humdrum into just plain weird and confuse . i be still unsure whether the final twist have to do with the concept of reincarnation or just coincidence and all the remain character suddenly seem to go undergo vast mental transformation shortly before they die and for some reason . i honestly regret confirm house of seven corps be a pretty dreadful movie . the location and scenery be gloomy chilling and but not nearly use to full effect and there a serious lack of gruesome bloodshed . numerous low budget 70 gem be stunningly gross and so the lack of financial mean be no excuse and the film within film murder really do not count . even the always reliable veteran star deliver hammy performance and harrison direction be completely uninspired . not recommended and unless you think the zero cool four and a half minute play open credit montage be worth the effort of purchase a copy .
