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.
BD：2021.12.19：TV版动画11-14集的合辑篇，以为是剧场版；有点上当的感觉，
困得不行，故事老套，婚礼开始，葬礼结束，情节过于拖拉，节奏比一更慢，没有情怀的真的不用去看。缺觉的可以去补个觉
8/10.
电影版都看了，圣诞版也都看了，唯独电视剧版，停在大小姐速度周旋在两个男人之间，以及各种糟心的剧情。再看此片，情怀都在。依旧不喜欢司机，他简直是在编剧笔下开挂的命好，原因是去世的三小姐爱上了他。我甚至为托马斯开启“下一站人生”而欣慰。是的，在这残忍的世界里能尽量幸福！父亲大人一如既往抓我眼球，哭泣那段演的真好啊！希望还有续篇：南法度假篇（让我联想到阿婆的推理剧），玛丽跟导演再续……想不到已经十二年了，第一次看此剧是2010年。
一个婚礼加一个葬礼，我倒不觉得唐顿会落幕，20世界上半叶的大事还多着呢。
还是好善良的一家人啊，在现在这样的环境里，能坐在电影院享受难得的平静和风景真的太好了。结尾好催泪，还是没忍住哭了
很多年后，已故好莱坞著名导演的遗嘱里将一栋大别墅给了大小姐。大小姐的后人纷纷猜测其中一段香艳往事，最后大小姐会跟他们讲出这段发乎情止乎礼的感情：一个没有发生的吻，成了永恒。
鬼灭TV版被切碎的七零八落，不过确实几个故事都挺有意思
you r one of us，not one of them。
最后炭治郎在沉浸之中获得成长，用大招破解一切，也制作的非常出色，如果想要重温剧情，又觉得分集看比较麻烦，还是可以一看本片的。
蛮有趣的，又是皆大欢喜的结局，挺好。一个世代的落幕，又拉开新时代的序幕，生生不息。
在这个只有快餐的时代，
新的时代要开始了，愿此刻便是唐顿庄园的完美结局。
新时代随着交替中拉开帷幕。服装满分，布景满分，英英满分，无可挑剔。另外，Mosley太可爱了。
合格的群戏
520一个人看这部片子是一种仪式感，也很奇妙。1. 在漫长的时间里，所有情爱怨仇都是浮云，“人来人往，克劳利家族永远都在”。2.老夫人的去世总让我担心现实中演员真的会去世，还有女王走了大概也是这样，然后更难受。老夫人这段浪漫经历又证明了，和不爱的人结婚对彼此都是多大的伤害。3.大小姐更像老夫人了，回忆起大表哥的神情意味深长让人神伤，而导演问那一句后她坚定回答“No”，让我肃然起敬。她靠在Carlson肩头恸哭，更让人心疼（Carlson真的慈爱）。4.大表哥的母亲对我而言更像一位楷模，很难形容失独后的她，可能会是未来的我自己吧。5.祝福大家都像Mosley一样事业爱情双丰收！
关于贵族尊严，生死无常，以及娱乐至上的新时代，英国优质影片的派头
不知道什么时候才能看到内地上映版删减的6分钟。全世界的影视题材里，我们像一座孤岛～
内容稳定，但是没有熟悉的大表哥，眼缘们肉眼可见的老去了。大姐还是很有魅力，成熟了。
