i thought it was effective when i was a kid (the face ripping off scene) but i never had 'the fear' because i instinctively knew no one was going to get killed (as in the Amityville Horror)

that was the case with PG horror films back in the day - people ran around scared - but they werent killed..

i guess the fear of the character you like getting killed was key for me - put me more in the driver seat so to speak..

the 1st sequal was interesting just for the creepy presence of Julian Beck ..

nothing at all to recommend #3 pointess junk.
