Trivia
This gets a mention in Scream 2 (1997) as being one of the best sequels ever (admittedly it is mentioned alongside the likes of Terminator 2 (1991) and The Godfather: Part II (1974) so the inference is sarcastic). See more »Goofs
When Jesse is in the kitchen trying to get the skull from the bird's mouth, you can briefly see the puppeteer operating the bird in the lower right corner of the screen. See more »Quotes
Bill: There it is. Looks like you've got some kind of alternate universe in there or something.See more »

This is a great movie I watched as a kid. My husband and I found it on Netflix recently and sat down and watched it with the family. My eight year old loves it! I rank it up there with something like The Monster Squad. Some edgy subjects for kids but a really cool movie nonetheless. I can't believe this movie has a 0% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. It's a classic! I sit and watch it as an adult, and OK, it's very cheesed and there are several plot holes, but it's still a really good concept. My husband even jokes about using it for a D&D campaign. The first house still has it's merits and I haven't seen any other sequels, but I like them both as sequels and on their own.
