Never saw it, but assuming it's based on the book.
My favorite Katherine Helmond was in Overboard, I think.

Yesssssssssssssss. Lucas Haas was in it, too. That is quite a scary movie. Scared me so much as a kid that I still find it to be disturbing, especially the scene where Haas' uncle is trying to break into the car to kill him.

YES. The whole scene where he finds his uncle in the yearbook and puts two and two together, then when his parents force him to go and practice archery with the creepy uncle. I haven't seen it in years but it was really a sick film.

Of course.
I remember when it came out on video, a lot was written about how it was doing much better on video than it had done in theaters.
These days the supermarkets here sell the DVD for $9.99 on special display bins.

That's so funny you mentione Audrey Rose! I just got it from Netflix a couple of weeks ago. I remembered my sister and I used to get so scared from watching it when we were little, especially when she burns her hands on the cold window! It wasn't as scary watching it as an adult though. The girl who played Ivy had a really annoying voice too.
