Review of Stranger in Our House (1979) by Cli O — 14 Jun 2008
Before there was "The Craft" there was The Crap. Early TV-movie horror directed by Wes Craven [before he came to his senses and created Freddy Krueger] and based on a novel by Lois Duncan ("I Know What You Did Last Summer").
The film stars Linda Blair of "The Exorcist." Filled with cheesy plot devices and characters right out of "Scooby Doo" [Look for the old guy neighbor who HAPPENS to be an expert on the occult], a dunderhead of a script and one of the greatest (worst) late 70s catfights ever filmed.
.. seriously, there's big hair everywhere. It's like watching Muppets wrestle. Why remake good movies when this is still collecting dust somewhere?
