House on Haunted Hill/YMMV

The original film:

 * Magnificent Bastard: It's hard not to love Frederick Loren.

The remake:

 * Fridge Logic: If Evelyn's guest list
 * High Octane Nightmare Fuel: The film's scare scenes are pretty decent on their own, but with the magnificent buildup...
 * Narm: "I had nothing to do with this! I was adopted!"
 * Retroactive Recognition: Ali Larter, who would go on to play Clear in the first two Final Destination movies.
 * She would also go on to play Nikki in Heroes.
 * Uncanny Valley
