Episode 578: House II The Second Story (1987)

We round out Listener Submitted Month with another part 2, this one featuring a lot more elder abuse (it’s ok, the great-great-grandpa is kind of an immortal corpse) and a lot less butt stuff. HOUSE ll: THE SECOND STORY (1987) decides to not pick up where the first movie left off and instead focus on yuppies living in the gaudiest Aztec-themed house you may ever see. There’s a crystal skull that can be used for time travel, a six-shooter-wielding skeleton named Slim, and the star of the film, a caterpillar-dog. It’s heavy on the comedy and fantasy, with the tiniest sprinkling of horror on top, perfect as an introduction to scarier stuff for kids - not something we would say for any other entry in this particular franchise.
