The House by the Cemetery
Directed by Lucio Fulci
Gruesome supernatural slayings begin after a family moves into their new house in the final entry in Lucio Fulci’s “Gates of Hell” trilogy. The Boyle’s new house hides a horrific history of murder and torment, including a recent familicide committed by Norman Boyle’s former colleague. But as Norman tries to uncover the mystery behind the murders, he uncovers an otherworldly secret that may be closer than he thinks. Though it’s tonally less apocalyptic than CITY OF THE LIVING DEAD and THE BEYOND, the creeping suspense and gory FX should satisfy any Fulci fan. Contains violence and gore.

Not Fulci’s best but the silly effects, dramatic score, and overacting make it a fun watch.
Awful
I got more confused the more I watched. What was the little girl, a psychic from the 1800's or did she exist in modern time? WHAT is with that god awful 5 second clip of those kids crying that they loop over and over and over and over. Seriously, it was driving me insane. The quote at the end implies.. what exactly? Lost in translation perhaps? The loose ends are maddening. The gore was good, though. As was atmosphere.
