Horror Hotel

I have been following Horror Hotel and Lamia for several years now - sorry to not review sooner! - and am so glad that I flipped onto the show one fateful night. This show quickly became one of my favorites, and I have yet to stop watching. They do keep some humor and hoke that old-time late-night host fans have come to expect, but I love that the heart of it is actually educational. Whether we are learning about horror movies, the history of cinema, or even Lamia's weird world of monsters, you always learn something new. It's refreshing, and I hope more people can continue to discover this wonderful show. Lamia and team, please keep these coming for as long as you can!

I am really enjoying Horror Hotel. I know there are a lot of ways to watch but wish it was on cable in my city so I can watch it on TV. Lamia is a great horror host! I think even better than the likes of Elvira since she gives more info on what we're watching and the show isn't too hokey. Love the snakes and zombies. Maybe have some vampires make cameos in the future? Vampire AND zombie crew? That would be awesome! I like the old horror movies - have seen some I hadn't before. Would like to see some more indie films on the show, since they haven't been seen by many people. HH movie choices are solid and I like the variety. Lamia, I will see you at "Horror Hotel" in June! Big fan.

A lot of people say they are Lamia's biggest fan but I've claimed it longest. Sorry but it's true! I have watched since day 1 when it was just on the internet! It sure has changed!! But for the good! So much attention to detail and always making it better for the viewers. I grew up in Cleveland watching Ghoulardi. It was the greatest! I was a big fan but Lamia somehow turns the host concept upside down - in a good way. I read reviews that said she is like Robert Osborn for horror movies and agree. It is nice to learn more about these movies I grew up with and see movies I never saw before. There is just enough goofing around and skits to give it that old school host feel but without being too much or taking away from the movie. I HATE when they take away from the movie with voice overs and goofy sounds or interruptions. Lamia doesn't do that! I am a fan for LIFE!~

This show has it all. Horror, mysteries, sci-fi, dark comedy, full length movies, short movies, TV episodes, everything. Viewers see it all, from silent movies to modern horror movies. The specials are always super special, and I love that they are always finding new things to add. The comics, the animations, old shorts, drive-in stuff. Really is something for everyone, and it's a great way to please the old-school viewers who remember original hosts of this type, as well as introduce newbies and young people (family friendly) to a whole new era of hosting. Very entertaining.

I should start by saying I'm setting the bar very low to start for this indie show. This one is "Okay" for concept but it really needs some serious work if it's to go further. The girl could use some more acting or speech lessons. Felt like I was listening to a high schooler read off a book report or a Wikipedia posting; very stale delivery even with the few voice inflections, flashes of fake fangs, and eye brow raising on key words. The two movies I've tried to watch so far were extremely poor quality (yes I realize I'm watching old black & white movies that were never remaster edited and they're probably viewable online somewhere free), but you have to turn up the volume to hear anything even the girl. No close captioning for even her speaking parts, but that's likely the fault of RetroTV or ReelTV, whichever is operating this show. I should add that if you were channel surfing, you'd likely pass over this because it's a little difficult to tell if the indie horror stuff they show are the commercials or if someone flipped the switch to show something else. There's also no mention of the show's name during any breaks. I caught it barely in the credits (I kept missing the first 10-15 seconds of the show), took a couple of Google tries to get a hit. I was hoping to find a schedule to see what any upcoming movies are just for curiosity but not having much luck.
