Review: Everyone has heard of haunted houses, filled with ghosts, goblins and ghouls, but such is not the case in this instance. Here the house itself is the evil entity, the monster. And only three kids understand just what that means. All of the adults are impervious to the knowledge, including clueless parents and bumbling police. There is one adult, however, who knows the secret of the House, Mr. Nebbercracker (Steve Buscemi), its creepy owner. Things go from bad to worse as the mystery is unearthed.

The film is made entirely of computer generated animation. Unfortunately, the images are not of an endearing nature and the young audience was divided between somewhat unimpressed and frightened. Ho hum.
