I just watched it for a second time. I liked it a better than the first time around--2 points higher this time, for a 7/10.

I actually liked this movie, but to me the sequel sucked.

reply

ONLY its sequel??? (oh, and excuuuuse me, this has a 'sequel'? Say it isn't so!)

This film didn't even suck. It TANKS.

Horrific acting; lame-ass, SLOW sceneplay, terrible character development....the list goes on and on.

What good came from this? Granted it was iconic Robert Englund's directorial debut - and HE was Freddy Krueger! Oh well, we all make mistakes! Good thing he stuck back to acting.

reply

Yes there is a sequel to this film and the actor who played Spike reprises his role in the sequel. He is the only original actor from the first film. The sequel went directly to video. The sequel was shown a lot on USA UP ALL NIGHT back in the day. I just thought that I would let you know about that.

wtf? this is late 80's horror cheese and your ragging on it for poor character development? i don't think you really get these movies.

reply

Yes the movie was good but I liked the sequel though to be honest with you. It has been years since I have seen the sequel to this movie. It would have been better if they some how brought Hoax back in the sequel. Never know they could do a third one to the franchise and have a few of the original actors in the film. That would be cool to see. Robert Picardo could redo his role in the film. I would not complain about that at all.

That is cool that you liked it and raised up the points on it. I thought this was a good movie as well to watch. I love movies like this.

This is a cult classic! This was popular to watch on USA UP ALL NIGHT back in the day on USA Network. That was before NBC bought out USA Network and completely destroyed what USA Network had created when they were a independent network.

I thought I wasn't going to enjoy it at all, but I did.

I remember Leonard Maltin gave a decent review to this. Very surprising.

reply

Yes, in his guide he rates it 2.5/4, "snappy... as often as not, it delivers the goods."

reply

Very very detailed thread. I 100% understand your opinion because of this crazy in depth analysis you've given us. I applaud you

reply

It woulda been cool if Hoax returned for the sequel but Geoffreys had already left showbiz for hoebiz

reply

I enjoyed it a lot more when I was 12 than I do now, but it still isn't a bad movie. I give it a 6.5 out of 10.
