There are 3 more photos included with the Facebook post, if anyone wants to grab them and post here.

Here are the other couple photos! Looks like the Evil Barber, a creature feature, and the Werewolf Bikers.

EDIT: Looks kind of like the Critters creatures in the second poster; probably heavily inspired there

This sounds so campy and fun and yet still has the potential to be scary. I love this mashup idea so we can have a variety of locations like a traditional haunt, but still be linked by the overall theme of different movies. One of my most anticipated!

seems like they reused the cigarette machine from awil

Those sets are so detailed for a Tent, it looks like a house from the Parade Building. I wonder if they’ll sneak in a Body Collectors nod in the Barber Shop scene since it’ll probably reuse a lot from the ‘08 BC house

I posted Stranger Things improperly in the main thread yesterday..

But here is our better look at Slaughter Sinema!

The pictures added to Instagram totally look like critters.

I absolutely love that fuzzy pumpkin critter 'noming down on a corpse.

Those sets look amazing! I love the birthday party with the Spy Hunter arcade machine in there! They even got the carpet right!

This house looks even more awesome now. Does anyone know what the poster for the Pizza Arcade's full name was? "Scottie's ___"?

Really hope this means we get a queue video with trailers for the faux movies.

I could be wrong, but wasn't this confirmed? The facade is a movie screen, I believe

from a podcast with creative it's confirmed there will be queue videos in the house.

I might be the only one on this board that feels this way but i think Hated this house, i might never see it again.
the house wasn't really funny but just kinda goofy, theres a difference. and it wasn't scary either. some of the "movies" they decided to go with felt a little dumb, I hate to say it but i was thinking wtf.... this is what they picked to make rooms from? i truly hate some of the rooms they had in this house. just because there was so much they could have done with this.

I know i might get flak for this, and i understand if im alone in feeling this way, im fully aware that this might end up being a fan favorite. but they went too far with being a comedy house. because of of the rooms dont feel like a HHN house at all, they feel like the opposite of horror. (There were a couple of cool rooms, don't get me wrong, there were a couple of really nice rooms)

I just dont understand what they were mocking, what movies they were mocking or why they chose to do what they did, And im one of those people that Always defends comedy houses and always try to explain how a comedy house can benefit the event, but this house was just too weird and it did not feel like a grindhouse homage at all....

This house reminded me of those fake trailers from Tropic Thunder that were played at the beginning of the movie or it reminded me of the fake movies Adam sandler had posters of in the movie Funny People.

one of the rooms reminded me of the movie Problem Child. i mean, come on.... lol I never thought i would see a house that reminded me of problem child

Have you ever seen Grindhouse? Those trailers in between the 2 main features? That's what they were mocking.

Side note: Most of the "Creatures" were ideas for bigger houses, but ended up on the shelf for whatever reason (i.e. Not enough material for house, too ambitious, wouldn't work, etc)

 

[JungleSkip]

Yea, they're not mocking specific films for the most part. Just an homage to D-level horror movies.

 

[hhnlover]

i actually think some of the movies in the house can make good full houses. like swamp yeti,schittes kidz, midnight snack 2.

Yeah I have seen grindhouse and that is what i was expecting but the house ended up feeling more like a full comedy than a horror. it felt like they were mocking violent comedies like hobo with a shotgun or movies like and movies like POSTAL, or movies like Machete or something like that.

Sure the house has gore, but it made me think of gory comedies like Scary movie. (This house could have totally had a room based on Scary movie and it would not feel out of place for example) I guess i expected it to be more horror, and i know the gore is there, I guess it just was too much humor for what im used to from HHN.
maybe if i do it more times it might grow on me.

schittes kidz just felt like a homage to Problem child... i dont how if problem child belongs at HHN lol.
