I've always enjoyed this one. Looking back, maybe a bit overdone, but tell me the scene when he's out and about with his girlfriend's ghost doesn't get a tear out of you.

Say, did anyone else thought the Horace and Jonathan chasing each other inside the TV hilarious? I always thought it was funny.
This wasn't a great movie. If it wasn't for The Hills have Eyes 2 and Deadly Friend, this would easily hold the title of Wes' worst movie. The plot was disjointed, Horace basically comes across like a second rate Freddy Krueger(the dream thing didn't help). Also Peter Burg is just incredibly dill as the lead protagonist, and don't get my started on the stupid finale.
Overall I would give it **/***** mostly for some ok gore and Mitch Pillegi doing an outstanding job playing Pinker, especially with what he had to work with.
You know, Wes has admit his disapointment over the special effects in the film.
