Amazon.com The audience for this rickety spoof is probably limited to three groups: diehard fans of Elvira, cultists of '60s horror (specifically the Edgar Allan Poe and Hammer offerings), and people who believe rim-shot, borscht belt humor ought to be brought back. The last group apparently includes Cassandra Peterson, the comedian who dreamed up Elvira; her fondness for vaudeville one-liners is either groan-worthy or infectious, depending on your tolerance for such things. Sample: "The village people say this castle is evil." "Ah, who listens to the Village People any more?" Ouch. Her Mae-West-meets-Vampira shtick wears surprisingly well at feature length (1988's IElvira, Mistress of the Dark/I is actually a pretty good time), although this movie simply runs out of material halfway through. Bonus: IRocky Horror/I genius Richard O'Brien contributes some amusing ravings as a mysterious Carpathian castle owner, pining away for a dead wife who suspiciously resembles our heroine. I--Robert Horton/I

Elvira......still dreamy October 26, 2007 Eric Cornelius (Bethany,Oklahoma) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
this movie is funnier than her first.Despite the years,she is still gorgeous.Elvira not only still has it but obviously to me she never lost it.
NOT AS GOOD AS MISTRESS OF THE NIGHT September 7, 2007 Gregory J. Burton (Muskegon, Michigan United States) THIS ONE FALLS A LITTLE SHORT OF ELVIRA, MISTRESS OF THE NIGHT, BUT IS STILL ENJOYABLE VIEWING. IT IS MORE OF A PLOT THING THAN ANYTHING ELSE. IF YOU ARE A ELVIRA FAN, YOU'LL STILL WANT TO WATCH THIS ONE.
EL Parodies Price September 1, 2007 Bennet Pomerantz (Seabrook, Maryland) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
if you saw the Vincent Price/Roger Corman films The House of Usher, The Pit and the Pendulum and The Tomb of Ligea, you have the basic idea of Elvirs's Haunted Hills br / br /The laughes are few and so far apart that wonder when the comedy comes. Elvira is in her baudy, busty best. however her one liners seem stale in this comedy. Elvira is in Better form here than she was in her previous film, Elvira Mistress of the Dark br / br /Rocky Horror Picture Show's Richard O'Brien whines and mugs for the camera too much as he plays Lord Vladimere Hellsubus. br / br /The supporting cast of semi unknowns ham it up for camera with bit gags that are hit or miss. br / br /If you like good satire mixed with bad one liners, this piece is for you. Vincent Price, who was a friend of Elvira, must be rolling in his grave..laughing at this send up of his work br / br /Bennet Pomerantz AUDIOWORLD
Funnier Than the First May 20, 2007 Larry M. Smith (USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
If all of you remember Elvira's first movie, you are truly going to love this movie a lot (maybe better than the first movie). If your into comedy/horror and your a true fan of Elvira and her comedy type ways, then you will enjoy this film. This film is dedicated to the late Vincent Price (which the movie focuses on most of Price's classics) and Elvira does what she does best by hamming it up and poking fun with her "dark" humor ways. This film is truly a blast. Recommended to all Elvira fans!
OK, OK it's trashy! January 6, 2007 Mister C (Fairfield, CA United States) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
It may be trash but it is really cute trash. Just the thing to watch while passing out candy on October 31. More then a few grins for the price!
