22. Ghoulies II dir. by Albert Band (1988)
Ghoulies II is entertaining enough, but it holds a special place in my heart as a “scary” move that I wasn’t allowed to watch, but that my dad rented from the local video store for me one weekend.
This Ghoulies had Albert Band (father of horror producer/director Charles Band) at the director’s helm. Still no Stan Winston, but at least there’s a Band in there.
Some of the ghoulies from the first film skip town via a roving carnival. They set up shop in the failing horror house and start being all ghoulish. Some gross out scares, and kind of fun. There’s a giant ghoulie payoff in the end. More entertaining than the first, but still not top notch horror.
