Movie review - "Kocking on Death's Door" (1999) **

Absolutely fine haunted house film from Roger Corman's Irish operation. Not a classic but its competent. A young couple move into a house that's apparently haunted and weird stuff happens. That's about it.

There's only a few support roles - David Carradine in a doctor (shooting most of his scenes in the one spot), a local redneck, a slimy professor. There's some "sexy" moments that slightly clang - Kimberly Rowe and Brian Bloom have soft core-ish make out sessions (no nudity in the version I saw it just was filmed like a soft core), she masturbates. They should've gone further with this or pulled back altogether - because the amount that's there is off putting.

No classic, not even a good film, but solid and professionally done and it is set in Ireland.
