Uninvited (1993)
3/10
Weird Scenes Inside (and outside) The Gold Mine
22 August 2009
A group of strangers (including a half-crazed survivor of the Donner party!) pool their money and buy a mountaintop gold mine. Unbeknownst to them it's cursed by the spirits of the Indian warriors who died there years ago.

Uninvited is basically a micro-budgeted frontier variation of The Shining with not enough horror to satisfy horror fans and not enough action to satisfy western fans. There's a sense of doom and gloom that hang over the proceedings but little suspense. Most of the highly unlikable characters spend most of the time bickering amongst themselves and in the end there's no one to root for.

I knew something was wrong when top billed Jack Elam disappears from the picture before the beginning credits finish rolling!
