My Thoughts:
I went into this one with a bit of mixed feelings. First I really enjoyed the first one... so was hopeful that I would like this one as well. Then I noticed this one has Rob Lowe in it. That is the first sign that I may not think too much for this one. Well I figured I will go ahead and give it a go... and if worse comes... at least I got it cheap. I got this one at the local Big Lots for only $3. I think going into this movie expecting the worse helped. As while it is far from a great ghost story... I found myself enjoying it for what it is. Sure it is a step back from the original. But it is still a decent story with some cool scenes and just a bit of gore added in for good measures.

An interesting story with some pretty incredible special effects given that this movie was made in 1933.  The acting wasn't really great, but I enjoyed seeing Gloria Stuart (elderly Rose in Titanic) as a young woman and I think Henry Travers is just a marvelous character actor.  A fun time.

1.01 Episode 1

This animated series had some funny moments (I only own the first six episodes though). And they captured Rowan Atkinson quite well. But I didn't enjoy the first episode much.
