The DVD packaging sells this as a scary little ghost story...and that is what this starts out as before jumping the (haunted??) railroad tracks and dissolving into a brutally graphic slasher pic / "Saw" torture porn flick (if you think watching a little girl getting her lips sewn shut by another little girl (in graphic closeup) is scary or watchable then you might get a rise out of this...anyone looking for intelligent coherent storytelling should avoid it at all cost.
Ludicrous and very sad "performances" from once lukewarm (in 1987) names Sally Kirkland and Lou Diamond Phillips are final coffin nails in this turkey...with Kirkland's deep fried (and totally anachronistic)accent and ridiculously hammy emoting being proof positive of how much she deserved to lose Best Actress to Cher.
All in all..a depressing misfire and a sad cheat.
