The House Collection

"The House Collection" is a series of Italian horror films released in 1988. The collection originated with the film 'Ghosthouse', which was initially distributed under the title 'La casa 3', a strategy to leverage the popularity of the first two 'Evil Dead' movies. This approach proved financially viable, leading to the production of 'La casa 4 - Witchery' and 'La casa 5 - Beyond Darkness' for the same distributor. The series concluded with re-titled versions of 'House II' and 'The Horror Show'. The collection comprises two films, each with a runtime of 95 minutes. The total runtime of the entire collection is 190 minutes. The collection had a budget of zero and generated no revenue. The films within "The House Collection" were produced by the same distributor and represent a continuation of a narrative thread established with the initial release of 'Ghosthouse'. The series' development was driven by a specific marketing strategy to capitalize on existing film trends. In total, the collection consists of two installments released within a single year, 1988.
