Absolutely Fantastic

Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

A sequel in name, if not story, to Saturday the 14th, the Baxter family is the focus here. You have the dad, Frank (Avery Schreiber, who was in a ton of Doritos commercials, but he was also Russian coach Markov in The Concorde...Airport '79, one of my all-time favorite horrible movies), mom Kate (Patty McCormack...do I have to tell you that she was in The Bad Seed?), sister Julie (Julianne McNamara, who before she started acting won the U.S. women's first individual event gold medal in Olympic history for the uneven bars) and the aforementioned Eddie (Jason Presson, The Lady in White). Oh yeah! I forgot that grandpa lives there and he's played by Ray Walston.The Evil One wants Eddie to embrace his power and introduces him to an entire family of monsters, including Michael Berryman as a mummy! Oh yeah, I almost forgot! Grandpa's pal Leonard is played by Phil Leads, the character actor who played Doctor Shand in Rosemary's Baby.The end of the movie is a cavalcade of past Corman productions, including the guitar and part of the body of Joey Ramone. This is a mess, a movie that was cobbled together to cash in on the video store success of the original. Yet I find parts of it charming and perhaps I was in the right mood to enjoy it when I did.

this movie has it all,bad acting,bad directing,bad special effects.THATS probably being generous though,there is no reason to watch this movie.other then if your drinking a few,and you wanna make fun of a awful movie.i on the otherhand,found myself weirdly interested in this movie......im into the whole haunted house theme,so anything that has to do with that genre gets me alittle interested.i like the 1st Saturday the 14th better then this one though,but for some reason im into b-movie cheesefests,this one just made me laugh.it is really terrible,i cant believe im admitting that i like this garbage,but if you wanna watch something putrid,go out and rent this DVD.....but be warned,it stinks.

Well, the only really redeeming part of the movie for me is that it is one of the few movie with sleep mind control in it. The sister, the mother, the father and the sexy aunt are controlled twice during the movie while they sleep. What they are doing is pretty strange, but the scenes are kinda cool. If only the movie had been rated R, we would have gotten to see some sexier night attire.I haven't seen the whole thing, but I will one of these days.Overall, the movie could have been a lot better, but the execution was a little botched.

Basically that's an easy way of saying that this movie was not one of his best. But basically the films about this Teenage guy who moves with his family to a new home and it's hunted. He is trying to stop the spirits from coming into the human world. It's Kinda weird and at times boring with low production budget that you can notice. I had a hard time watching it without screaming. Even though I like Jason Presson work, this was definatley not one that I liked as much. I have to say that cuz I did buy the DVD.
