An American horror film directed by Bruce Starr with uncredited input from Ulli Lommel and Paul Wilson. It was a sequel to Lommel's The Boogeyman (1980) and Lummel subsequently recut the film for release as a “director's cut” (it's this version that was used here to obtain credits).
Plot Summary
Lacey, the survivor of the Boogeyman's previous rampage, recounts her experiences to her new friends in Hollywood. A group of film-makers turn up wanting to make a film of the tragic tale – but something is determined to stop them and the cast and crew soon start falling victim to the Boogeyman…
