    Speaking of the guy peeling his face off, I went to school with him and he did have acne-sorry Marty (bad joke). I thought you were great in the movie(after dropping the chicken on the floor which was covered with maggots and had the steak crawl on the counter). He's the only actor not listed on the entry...Martin Casella. I just wanted to give you appropriate credit my friend.Dino

    Why is it a PG in america? So kids are allowed to watch some guy have his face peeled off? America is ridiculous for it's ratings. Everything is a bloody R when it doesn't need to be and vice versa for PG's. Some of our 15 rated films are R in america. Lol, 17 year olds have to go in with a guardian for something which we only have to be 15 for...and not need a guardian.

    I didn't think it was scary. To me it was too over the top. The scariest thing was the Midget lady her voice is so creppy.

    I miss heather I think she was a beatiful little girl with so much talent, I also think that Dominique Dunne who played Dana, would have been a great actress too.

    The clown isn't scary. The part where JoBeth is getting dragged on the wall was scary.
