A most pleasingly atmospheric rendition of the tale, noirishly photographed and moodily set, this is the version which probably would have delighted Conan Doyle the most. There is one important plot change which enables the beautiful Alice Brandt to enjoy both a larger role and a more intriguing part in the proceedings. This change also builds up the parts of Dr Mortimer and Lord Charles, yet at the same time provides a nice introduction to the is-he-sinister or is-he-a-good-guy Barrymore, deftly played here by Fritz Rasp.
Despite the sting of its well-developed story, the spellbindingly atmospheric direction and the engrossing performances delivered by the entire cast, many fans may find this version somewhat disappointing. For at least three reasons: As in the novel, the part played in the narrative by Sherlock Holmes, though vital, is minimal. And in this version, not only has no attempt been made to enlarge his role, if anything both writer and director do their best to minimize it. Holmes does not even make his entrance for half-an-hour, and when he does finally appear, he has his back to the camera. It is Fritz Odemar, as Dr Watson, who receives the more favorable camera angles. And there is a purpose in this. It is Watson, not Holmes, who figures as the main protagonist of The Hound of the Baskervilles. For the bulk of the narrative, Holmes disappears. It is Watson and Lord Henry (Peter Voss) who take up the running. The movie is almost over, before Holmes closes in on the villain. And even so, this is not the obsessed, self-important Holmes we are accustomed to see taking charge. Another problem is that the title hound itself does not figure a great deal in the action, a downgrading which will undoubtedly rate as another major disappointment for fans. And finally, it could be argued that the script gives too much attention to Conan Doyle's red herring, the escaped convict, and not enough to the real villain.
This said, it must surely be admitted by all, that Odemar's interpretation of Watson—intelligent, charming, level-headed, courageous and resourceful—is much closer to Conan Doyle's conception than either the bungling, inveterately stupid Nigel Bruce or the self-effacing Ian Fleming.
One other player deserves special mention: Erich Ponto (Dr Winkel in The Third Man) who seems exactly right for Stapleton. A difficult part, superbly played.

Btw片尾曲好听
女主拥有果敢，坚强的性格，不惧困难，的令人佩服的精神。
還真就做成了粉絲向續作，依靠這個思路加規則吐槽原班人馬回歸可看性還是很足的，最後結尾反轉雖然挺無語但按照粉絲向續作的主題也算情理之中，不過原作只看過第一部毫無情懷的我來說共情感大打折扣，而且很多砍殺片一直有點問題還是一直在
这是啥？恐怖版过家家么？就像春晚上大张伟和王冕的节目，粉丝也许很high，我就只能抠脚趾头。
奥斯丁的棺材板要压不住了。男主看上去像中风过在努力康复中…全局就达妹还能看看（少些尴尬的独角戏和独白更好）
“好莱坞完全没有创意了，所以我们决定给他们一些新的素材”，电影里的台词
回锅恐怖经典的量产作品中品质较好的，起码看得见认真。
绝对不要下跪，绝对不要后退，绝对要带着一起下地狱。
从70年代到现在，Slasher Film这个类型基本上走到头了。各种点子桥段能用的都已经用的差不多了。现在的新作少有佳作，各种续作不是卖情怀就是搞自我解构，或者彻底摆烂。《惊声尖叫》系列就更难了，就像片子里说的：我们也没有迈克·迈尔斯这样的不死角色每集都拿出来做反派啊！！！
少女与纹身，少女与挖掘机，宁静与轰鸣，种种不和谐因素是对坚强，无力，无奈，反抗别致且深刻的象征，金惠允大荧幕首秀即是满满的表现力不负演剧时带给人的期待。
love letters to horror movie fans
对自身系列以及其他知名恐怖片的致敬/玩梗倒是一次不错的“续集”的尝试，比起生硬的“电锯惊魂9”更能让影迷们兴奋。可是好像本片也只能靠这些手段来续着时长了，一些剧情片段经不起细想，只能用“导演故意的”来解释过去（不过开橱柜门/冰箱门那段还是挺有趣的）。看完后感觉是《幸存的女孩》的龙凤胎，也算是这几年不错的续集类电影了。
事实证明看这部新作之前重温第一集非常有必要，二者关联不小，连着看增加不少乐趣，不但把铁三角请回来了，还把第一集的大房子也请回来了，做了一次很完整的致敬，不过因此让凶手身份很好猜了，也导致了明显的漏洞。。。问题很多但保持了系列一贯的娱乐性，比起《月光光心慌慌》那样打不死的杀人狂还是好看很多的，最后反杀戏太爽了，“永远别搞杀人狂的…..！”牛x
韩版。见好就收成吗，前三部就得了，系列的一个个狗尾续貂就没意思了，电锯系列也是。无聊到快进。这种活人是幕后boss的不补刀真的是找死，医院男配当时不补刀回去补刀自己领了便当简直是强行便当，女主男友是杀手之一实在是相当明显。两人打斗从楼梯上掉下来，地板上一块白的，看不清，感觉怎么像卫生巾?（不想退回去定格看了）这些编剧一个个已经编不出来了，开始强行开后续，简直了。女主们都活下来好评
So fucking boring and stupid！别再拍了！前有德州电锯杀人狂稀烂的续集，紧接着又来了个这个，还好意思把以前的演员请来？！
因为不是奥斯丁读者所以不介意各种类型的再创作，这里的当代性用得也还不错。最大的问题可能是女主角的自述和她的实际经历看起来像是两个完全不同的人。原来这个又是Cosmo Jarvis，已经看过好多次promising的角色，但始终缺一部力作。当然这样的不像传统奥斯汀故事的形象出现在这里也是有点有趣的。
弃。简奥斯汀本来就超无聊的 又弄个美国人来演英国人，差。下饭都下不下去。
现在流行把恐怖片拍成喜剧片吗（这到底哪里恐怖了啊！
做得对，以卵击石毁不了石头，恶心石头一把也是好的
看到最后的"For Wes"我才知道Wes Craven已经去世了。
