    This is the reason why Robert Englund should stick to acting and not directing. The story, which is more or less "Carrie" all over again, is a complete mess and far too jokey to deliver any scares.

    Ah, Robert Englund's directorial debut. What can we say about it? Well, Stephen Geoffreys (he of the strange screen presence, co-star of Fright Night) is quite good as the kid who turns into the monster but little else works in this standard horror potboiler. It's not that bad...( read more), though, and if you haven't seen it (and you're a horror movie fan) you should check it out at least once.

    Directed by Freddy Krueger, it's just what I remember bad 80's horror to be. Dated cheesiness at 2 in the morning. Had forgotten it starred the kid who was also Evil Ed in Fright Night.

    One of the last good horror flick of the 80's. This movie was original as most of the horror movies of that decade and is just a fun movie to watch. Plenty of cliche horror moments that make this film a good time.

    Waaaay corny horror flick but 1 of my faves when I was little
