An intriguing premise that ultimately falls a tad

An intriguing premise that ultimately falls a tad short on execution, Fulci's House of Clocks presents a scenario involving a surreal dwelling where even time itself is no constant. Lots of traditional Fulci blood and guts with some amusing moments from the Italian gore-master, yet, falls below his other superior works like 'Zombie' and 'The Beyond.' Not without its moments of pure Lucio, however, in this amusing (if slightly underwhelming) entry.

If you read the description for this movie

If you read the description for this movie — a young couple who are murdered by a burglar return as ghosts to watch over their two young orphaned children and save their home — you may think, "Ah, a nice movie for the whole family." You may also ask who directed this. Well, good news. It's Lucio Fulci, which means that the murder of the parents is so gory that it even gave me pause, and then the rest of the film is very family friendly and has numerous scenes of kids laughing and having a good time at the ghost antics. The dad's head gets crushed and the mom's eyeball pops out and oh Lucio, I love you so much. You can't help but be you. Only you would make a horror movie for kids and have a man get run over by a truck and his intestines show up on the outside of his body. Somehow, Fulci did show some restraint by having Cinzia Monreale in his movie and not having a dog tear her throat out with its teeth. Sarah (Ilary Blasi) and Marco (Giuliano Gensini) don't want to leave their house. And why should they, as their parents can make toys float and throw rotund men down the stairs, which will never not be funny and I'm a rotund man and feel that I can say that. After all manner of attempts to get them to leave, the parents decide to put their essences into two small stones so that they can be with their children forever, which is as sweet as Fulci gets. He follows this by having a spiritualist try to take those stones, which quickly melts his hand into a bloody stump of goo. The kids find this uproarious fun and laugh as they freeze for the credits. Fulci spoke very positively on the two made for TV films made for the La case maledette series — the other is House of Clocks — telling Roberto Curti in Italian Gothic Horror Films, 1980-1989 that they were "Fantastic! Excellent filmmaking!" and "two of his best films he made!" I kind of am on his side on this one. I mean, what other Fulci movie has a ghost shove a large man down the steps and kids dance and sing "Sausage is dead!"?
