Movies

“House on Haunted Hill” stars Geoffrey Rush (“Shine”) as a horror theme-park mogul who organizes a macabre overnight party in an abandoned mental hospital, once the site of horrifying medical experiments. He offers his guests $1 million each if they are brave enough to stay until sunrise. Little do the guests know that their twisted host has arranged for some spooky surprises. But little does he know that the haunted building and its ghostly residents have even creepier surprises in store for him. The film is a remake of William Castle’s 1958 horror classic, “The House on Haunted Hill,” which starred Vincent Price, and, in homage to the late horror film actor, Rush’s character is named Steven Price.

* “House on Haunted Hill,” rated R for horror violence and gore, sexual images, and language, opens Friday in general release.

Music

The Eclectic Orange Festival tackles millennial angst in one, well, eclectic swoop when it “virtually reenvisions” a Leonard Bernstein treatise and combines it with a live performance of Stravinsky’s “Oedipus Rex.” See Bernstein redefine modernism and look to the future in a multimedia version of his famous “Poetry of the Earth” Harvard lecture. Hear the National Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Leonard Slatkin. And consider the challenge of “creating anew in an uncertain world.”

* National Symphony Orchestra, Orange County Performing Arts Center, 600 Town Center Drive, Costa Mesa. Friday and Saturday, 8 p.m. $15 to $55. (949) 553-2422
