Nine Lives Reviews:
Loved It! 
2009-11-30 - I didn't really know what to expect when I got this movie, but I just love Paris Hilton and I'm a long time fan and admirer of her, so I thought I would check it out. I was very pleased and thought this movie was a good scary film.
Love It! 
2009-11-27 - My brother bought this movie becuase he's a huge fan of Paris Hilton and I went to him one day asking for movies to borrow and watch. He gave me this one and her other one called "House of Wax" and I loved them both!
Paris Hilton Nine Lives Review 
2009-09-21 - Her performance was good. We'd say she did the part well or as it was called for. Movie would've been better if her part in the film was longer.

Creepy Ghost Story That Is Nice To Watch On A Stormy Winter Night 
2008-11-15 - "Nine Lives" had great potential. Unfortunately, it was a disappointment. The setting is perfect. Nine attractive college friends are snowbound in a huge manor in the secluded countryside of Scotland. (One can become literally lost in the manor's maze of rooms.) The atmosphere is creepy, cold, and foreboding.
The ghost of a Scottish land baron, Murray, is angry because his eyes were gouged out and his lands and home seized from him. He possesses one youth and begins to slaughter the others. The ghost passes from one body to another, reminding me of the alien creature in "The Hidden" and the demonic creature that was Jason Voorhees in "Jason Goes to Hell."
"Nine Lives" is a good slasher film in that the viewer doesn't know who will die next. However, there are no major revelations or surprises and no twist ending. In fact, the ending was rather mundane. This film is essentially standard slasher fare.
Paris Hilton's performance was also a disappointment. She receives top billing and I suspect her name appeal drew American audiences to rent this DVD. She is the only American in the film. The rest of the cast consists mostly of attractive Europeans with British and Scottish accents. Paris basically plays herself: a wealthy, spoiled socialite who lives a carefree, selfish life. She barely raises her voice when threatened. Paris' character is the first to die, which is early in the film.
"Nine Lives" shouldn't be bypassed altogether. It does have some startling moments and the snowbound setting is wonderful. This film is great to watch on a cold, wintry night when it is either raining or snowing hard outside.
