Basically she starts to play with Abigail (Katelyn Hunter), her twin sister ... who had to die at childbirth in order to save her. But soon Sarah starts to see Abigail too, and a harmless (if macabre and slightly worrying) imaginary friend becomse something much more sinister ...</li> <li><i>Be Careful What You Wish for</i>: When Anna (Kerry Finlayson) finds her husband (Gian Keys) in bed with another woman (Jordana Johns), she almost unwillingly turns to a psychic (Lisa Goodman) to help her with her problems and inner turmoil - but there's more than one meaning for "help" ...</li> <li><i>Hot Stuff</i>: Andy (Kaden Graves) thinks he's seriously hot stuff - and because of that, he's become incredibly picky when it comes to women - until he takes home the wrong girl (Helen Soraya), who shows him being "too hot" might be fatal ...</li> <li><i>Lifelike</i>: When she was little, Helen (Kylie Rogers aged 8, Savanna Gann aged 12, Lauren Lakis aged 16) got a doll, and being neglected by her mom (Elain Rinehart) who only brought home lover after lover, and not being popular in school, the doll soon became her only friend and role model even - not long now until things get out of hands then ...</li> <li><i>The Leapling</i>: Ella (Abbey Anderson) reads her brother Ben (Zachary Haven) a scary story he's a bit too young for, and it freaks him out. Now everybody tries to convince him it's not real - but hey, maybe it is ...</li> </ul>  <p>Framed by very humourous introductions by Lloyd Kaufman, who plays it relatively straight for a change, <b>Horror House</b> is an extremely nice anthology movie, as it puts its emphasis on old-fashioned poignant story-telling rather than spectacle, provides all of its stories with fittingly macabre plot twists and surprise endings, well-drawn characters and good dialogue. And add to this a very subtle and atmospheric directorial effort and a decent cast, and you've got yourself a very entertaining piece of genre entertainment!</p> <p>  </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="592" valign="top" height="1%">  <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> currentyear = "2013"; </SCRIPT> <SCRIPT language="JavaScript" src="../scripts/endcredits.js"></SCRIPT> <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> dosworsdonn(); </SCRIPT> </td> </tr> </table> </div> </body>
