The Spirit World is about to be Rocked
Haunted Castle: For the home viewer this movie showcases the same
amazing 3D effects as the original film shown in IMAX theaters - a top choice
for 3D effects fanatics! Although this title is listed in the horror category,
it's more of a fun, family movie based on a scary storyline. Digitally
remastered from the original Large-Format film, this is probably one
of the best 3D movies on our website.
 The
Storyline: The plot centers on Johnny, a young musician, who is summoned
to his mother’s castle in accordance with her final wishes. His mother, a famous,
yet reclusive, aging rock star, has spent her final days isolated in the mysterious
old building and hasn’t seen her son since he was three years old.
Upon his arrival, Johnny begins to discover that things are not as they
appear. The castle begins to come alive as materializing spirits lead
him to Mephisto, the ghoulish henchman, and to Mr. D, the castle’s custodian
of evil (both voiced by Harry Shearer). Mephisto informs Johnny that Mr. D has
been waiting for him and that all of Johnny’s questions will soon be answered.
When Johnny ventures further, an unexpected visage appears from beyond the
grave - his disembodied mother. She warns her son to take heed: an evil presence
lurks deep within the castle. Mr. D appears out of the flames of the fireplace
and makes Johnny a tantalizing offer. The same offer, Johnny learns, that his
mother accepted over twenty years earlier: surrender your soul in exchange for
unparalleled fame and fortune.
Before Johnny can answer, Mr. D suggests that he accompany Mephisto on a tour
of the more “restricted” areas of the castle in order to help solidify his decision.
In a whirling 3D-visual thrill ride, Johnny explores the underworld
of the castle and observes the fate of those musicians who dared to cross Mr.
D.
These unfortunate souls now exist in a state of perpetual doom, the most tortured
being opera singers - Mr. D’s most despised tenants. As Johnny makes his way
back to Mr. D’s lair with his decision, the spirit of his mother appears and
urges him to leave the castle while he still can - alive!
Johnny disregards his mother’s advice and confronts Mr. D. By summoning the
power of opera, Mr. D’s Achilles heel, Johnny destroys Mr. D and Mephisto in
an explosive climactic performance that saves him from evil and ultimately frees
his mother’s spirit.
