Overwiew :Charts the scary adventures of callow, young singer Johnny, who's an aspiring rock star. His mother, a rock legend herself, abandoned Johnny when he was 3-years-old, and later became a recluse in an English castle, where--unbeknownst to him--Satan resides. He is summoned to the castle, after her death, in accordance with her wishes. Upon his arrival at the castle, Johnny is given a tour by the devil's right hand man, Mephisto. Once he gets to witness what fame could offer him, the devil presents Johnny with a contract; if signed it would offer him rock megastardom. |

(also voiced by Shearer), who's got a proposition for Johnny. more...

www.boxoffice.com - : NWave's 3D, computer-animated creepshow ''Haunted Castle'' proves that, yes, a large-format film can be just as mindless, uneducational and special effects-fixated as the average 35mm Hollywood genre picture. Too bad writer-director-executive producer Ben Stassen and company don't demonstrate storytelling know-how equal to their impressive technical virtuosity. more...
