IMDb profile |
The Horror Show (1989) is a supernatural horror film starring Lance Henriksen and Brion James. Although titled House III: The Horror Show for the non-US market, and being produced by Sean S. Cunningham, it has no other connections with the first two House films. As a consequence, the third "true" House film was named House IV.
[edit] Storyline
Detective Lucas McCarthy (Lance Henriksen) finally catches the serial killer named "Meat Cleaver Max" (Brion James) and watches his execution. However, Max has made a deal with the devil in order to return from the grave and frame Lucas for a series of grisly murders. He also scares the McCarthy family (who have moved into a new house) and the parapsychologist they hire.
