A comedy/horror film starring William Katt, George Wendt, Richard Moll and Kay Lenz.
Roger Cobb is a Vietnam veteran, whose career as a horror novelist takes a turn for the worse when his son Jimmy mysteriously disappears while visiting an Aunt's house. Rogers' obsessive search for Jimmy ultimately dissolves both his marriage and his writing career and the sudden death of his Aunt brings Roger back to the HOUSE where his nightmares began. The evil that lurks within the house forces Roger to endure a harrowing journey into his past.
Mike's Thoughts:
By now, you more than likely have come to the conclusion that I'm a sucker for campy, low-budget comedy/horror and this film encompasses everything I love in the genre.
This movie has it all...lovable 1980's celebrities, a light-hearted and interesting plot, and special effects that bleed camp. I will always cherish this film as a landmark in the genre and will defend it til death.
Look For:
Jimmy. Roger needs some help.
