Trama
In seguito ad un incendio che ha distrutto la casa e causato la morte di sua moglie, Arthur Kriticos (Tony Shalhoub), i suoi due bambini Kathy (Shannon Elizabeth) e Bobby (Alec Roberts), e la baby-sitter Maggie (Rah Digga) stanno lottando per sbarcare il lunario. Con un colpo di fortuna, Arthur eredita un imponente villa da suo zio Cyrus (Murray Abraham). La casa è costituita da pareti di vetro mobili su cui sono scritte frasi in latino. Malgrado la stranezza della casa, la famiglia è entusiasmata, fino al momento in cui Dennis Rafkin (Matthew Lillard), un nevrotico, che in passato lavorava per Cyrus, rivela che lo zio di Arthur era un cacciatore di fantasmi, e che ha imprigionato 12 spettri all'interno della casa. Arthur non gli crede fino al momento in cui i suoi due bambini spariscono, in seguito l'avvocato Ben Moss (JR Bourne), che li ha accompagnati, innesca il meccanismo che sigilla la casa e libera i fantasmi uno alla volta. Arthur e Dennis, muniti di occhiali speciali che permettono loro di vedere i fantasmi, tentano di salvare i due bambini.
Kalina Oretzia (Embeth Davidtz) è una rilasciatrice di spiriti e sostiene di essere entrata in casa attraverso un'apertura. Salva Arthur e sua figlia dallo Sciacallo e informa lui, Maggie e Dennis riguardo ai fantasmi, alla casa e al tredicesimo spettro, che è in grado di fermare tutti gli altri.
Plot
Ghost hunter Cyrus Kriticos (F. Murray Abraham) and his psychic assistant Dennis Rafkin (Matthew Lillard) lead a team on a mission to capture a spirit, called the Juggernaut, in a junkyard. Several of the men are killed during the ensuing fight, including Cyrus himself. However, the team is able to catch the ghost. Cyrus' nephew, Arthur Kriticos (Tony Shalhoub), a widower, is informed by Cyrus' estate lawyer Ben Moss (JR Bourne) that he has inherited a mansion. Financially insecure, Arthur decides to move into the mansion with his two children, Kathy (Shannon Elizabeth) and Bobby (Alec Roberts) and their nanny Maggie (Rah Digga).
Dennis Rafkin, disguised as a power company employee, meets the family and Benjamin as they tour the mansion. The residence is made almost entirely of glass walls and floor with Latin phrases etched on them. After seeing several ghosts in the basement, Dennis frantically runs upstairs to warn Arthur that there are 12 violent ghosts imprisoned in the house, held captive. Moss slips away to collect his payment, but upon taking the briefcase he activates a mechanism that seals the entrance to the home and begins to release the ghosts one-by-one. The Angry Princess is the first ghost to be released, and advances menacingly towards Moss for remarking "nice tits," at her earlier. Moss attempts to apologize to her, but is sliced in half when two doors close through him.
Bobby disappears after getting separated from Maggie and is lured into the basement by the Bound Woman, recently released along with several other ghosts. Bobby then encounters two other ghosts, the Torso and the Withered Lover, who is revealed to be the ghost of his dead mother, Jean. He then sees his great-uncle, Cyrus, behind him and is attacked by him.
When the others split up and search the basement for Bobby, despite Dennis's protests, Dennis manages to use a pair of spectral viewers - which allow the wearer to see into the supernatural realm - to convince Maggie of the ghosts by using them to show her the Hammer in its cell. Shortly after, Denis discovers that the Jackal has been released, meaning they are in grave danger.
Meanwhile, Kathy puts on a pair of the spectral viewers she took from the bathroom earlier, and sees the Jackal, who then proceeds to viciously attack her and (possibly) attempt to rape her. However, she and Arthur are saved from the Jackal by Kalina Oretzia (Embeth Davidtz), a spirit liberator, who has snuck into the house and is attempting to free the ghosts. Kalina then uses Kathy's (who has mysteriously disappeared) spectral viewers to show the Jackal to Arthur, and explains that the home is actually a machine built by Cyrus, based on a design in a 15th century book written by the astrologer Basileus while he was possessed by the Devil. The machine is powered by the spirits of 12 ghosts based on the "Black Zodiac," and opens the "Ocularis Infernum" (Eye of Hell) that allows its user to see everything in the past, present and future, thus making the user the most powerful being on earth. Dennis also reveals that Jean is the Withered Lover, enraging Arthur. Kalina goes on to tell Arthur that his children are in grave danger, and the only way to ensure their successful return is for Arthur to sacrifice himself to become the 13th ghost - a failsafe ghost created out of an act of pure love, which would destroy the machine.
While Maggie and Kalina get to the library, Arthur and Dennis attempt to get to the basement, using a glass wall as a shield against the ghosts' attacks. However, when the Juggernaut is released as the final ghost and attacks Dennis and Arthur along with the Hammer, Dennis traps Arthur behind the glass wall, saving Arthur from the two attacking ghosts. However, the two ghosts together overpower and brutally finish Dennis off.
Meanwhile, Cyrus is revealed to be alive, having faked his death in order to lure Arthur to the house and Kalina is his secret partner and lover. Cyrus has orchestrated the abduction of Kathy and Bobby so that Arthur will become the 13th ghost, which will not stop the machine, as Kalina had claimed, but trigger its activation. Kalina says the only flaw in the plan is that Arthur will only sacrifice himself if his children are in jeopardy. When she balks at Cyrus's order to put the children in jeopardy, Cyrus traps her in a small chamber, crushing her to death between two walls. Cyrus plays a tape-recorded Latin chant to summon the ghosts to activate the machine.

Screenshoot
Note
Certamente non parliamo di un colossal da oscar, il cast non è sicuramente composto da superdivi, ma, nonostante questo, il prodotto è carino, la location la trovo molto originale e la trama, anche se non proprio innovativa, è carina, forse gli effetti di alcuni dettagli lasciano un poco a desiderare, ma, nel complesso ritengo il film, pur essendo un remake, abbastanza valido, credo ne valga la pena di perderci 90 minuti per guardarlo, poi, considerando che è pure gratis.....
Film catalogato come horro, anche se la paura che provoca è, per la maggior parte, data dagli spettri con qualche colpo di scenna che fa sobbalzare di tanto in tanto.
Per quel che riguarda la qualità non c'è nulla da dire, è perfetto anche se non recentissimo, sia video che audio. Il nome del ripper mi è ignoto, se qualcuno ne sa piu di me chiedo gentilmente di illuminarmi e non di accusarmi, grazie.
Buon download a tutti e buona visione, come sempre mi raccomando di tenere il seed per far vivere la rella il piu tempo possibile. Grazie.
