Genre: Horror Rating: UN Release Date: 2-MAY-2006 Media Type: DVD Wes Craven's Invitation to Hell Reviews: very satisfied !!  2009-10-17 - Saw this movie years ago, and never heard any more about it. Upon looking for old scary movies for halloween, This movie came to mind. Noone had heard of it. I went to Amazon and not even knowing the name of movie, I found it and purchased with no problem. I was so excited to see it again, and it was in great condition.
A Real Taste of the 80's!  2009-10-03 - It has been at least 17 or 18 years since I first--and last--saw this movie on TV. Even then, it was truly an inspiring throwback. What I enjoyed most was how potently 80's it was in every respect. The musical score particularly harks back to an earlier period of rich electronic music; using analogue synthesizers, and 'Tangerine Dream-like' soundscapes. It's always a wonderful experience returning to the spirit of that time. No other films can do it better than those low-budget relics such as this, which have been all but forgotten.
Fills The Need For Cheeeze!...  2009-08-07 - Wes Craven is an interesting director. The very same genius behind horror classics like THE HILLS HAVE EYES, LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT, and A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET, is also responsible for some major additions to the annals of cheeeze. His made-4-tv movie INVITATION TO HELL is a prime example of the latter. That nasty old satan is up to his old tricks again, this time in the guise of the beautiful Jessica Jones (Susan Lucci!), healthclub owner. Enter a loving family (including Robert Urich, Bladerunner's Joanna Cassidy, and Punky Brewster herself- Soliel Moon Frye!!) of unsuspecting suburbanites who are drawn into a devilish plot to get them to join the "Steaming Springs" health club. Little do they know, Jessica is only trying to imprison their very souls! Can dad (Urich) figure things out and save the day before health clubs like this begin popping up all across our great land? Let us pray for his success! Watch for Kevin McCarthy (Invasion Of The Body Snatchers, The Howling, Piranha, Twilight Zone: The Movie) as dad's boss, and Michael Berryman (The Hills Have Eyes, The Devil's Rejects) as a valet! Everyone should see this movie once...
Invation To Hell  2009-04-06 - This is an eerie tale from the 1980s. It does not quite make it as a horror. More like a eerie drama. It is pretty entertaining, especially with the soap opers star, Susan Lucci. Shey played the female, succubus, demon in the movie very well. With a little more action and violence, this could have been a much better movie, still it is good for those who like a soft chill. I Did Like it though.
Immersive emotional family movie  2008-05-15 - Invitation to Hell is an unknown and clearly underrated movie, done with very little budget but yet so strong emotionally. IMO a master piece.
It basically evolves around family bounds and how it feels to see the ones you love becoming strangers to you.
About the score, another great composition from Sylvester Levay (author of AirWolf main theme TV series) very simple and very emotional, that contributes a lot in creating the atmosphere of the movie.
Hope you will enjoy this movie as much as I did.
