Horror Movie Night Episode 158: The Horror Show (1989) by SaintmortAugust 23, 2018 We talk semi-regularly about the diminishing returns of horror franchises, but rarely do we see one fall so far into nebulousness as the 1989 House “sequel,” The Horror Show, starring Lance Henriksen! Lance is a hard-boiled cop dealing with PTSD after his partner dies while apprehending Meat Cleaver Max, so of course he spends his time choking his wife out and shooting his tv set. No one believes that his family is being haunted by Max’s electrically-charged spirit, and we wonder multiple times if we’re not just watching Shocker again. This is a real stinker (thanks Matt), but we make the most of it in typical HMN style, so bring your appetites for a random non-Thanksgiving turkey dinner with all the fixins, including a ghostly psychopath’s terrible goatee. Yum! Feel free to join in discussion at on our Facebook Group or in the comments below.
