The House of Hate' has many good points in its favor as a serial of financial value to the exhibitor. Looking at it, from the viewpoint of the story there exists, first of all, the proper foundation for a successful serial

"It is thrilling, to say the least, but, more than that, it carries a suspense that holds Ahe interest until the final scene. The un- explained climax also, is so presented as to excite the curiosity and thus bring the patrons back for the next instalment. The direction is good. Its evenness offers an ease in story-telling that simplifies matters considerably. The atmosphere, has been carefully maintained and the details and photography have been offered with care.

Setting aside the fact that it is a first- class story, exhibitors know that a Pearl White serial is a box-office attraction itself,, and this point is its chief talking point from the standpoint of the box-office. But, în addition to the drawing power of the star special attention should be paid to the story. This is strong, entertaining and thrilling.".

THE MOTION PICTURE NEWS

“Aside from starting out after the manner of a good serial, The House of Hate,'

•

Pathe's latest, is more pretentious in setting than the usual fifteen or twenty weeks 'to be continued in our next' picture. The interiors are as fine as those that ever graced a five- reel feature—are in every way as realistic and magnificent as those that one sees in a Pathe Play.

THE DRAMATIC MIRROR

Points of interest: The well-established mystery and the suspended interest. The

fact that the leading female role is played by “ the best-known serial actress, whose ability needs no comment. The pleasing capability and personality of Antonio Moreno.
