in this one, Rob gets into a 3some with 2 underaged ghosts and catches it all on video tape.

bacon is one of the most unappreciated actors ever ..
probably of his unconventional looks ..
i thought this guy was brilliant since diner .
like a lot of other actors - he might take shit rolls - but he's always good.

Bacon has done some really good work...I loved his squaring up with Cruise in "A Few Good Men", plus a few other movies.
As far as HM:2 is concerned, I think it ll suck. For the simple reason that it ll end up to be a CGI-bloated piece, without Verhoeven and Bacon.
Stir of Echoes 2...now that is interesting...will it have the same premise or...?

it'll face the same problem as most sequels based on a piece of decent fiction faces ..
'echos was written by the great richard matheson ... i can bet he's not writing the sequel ;)
