House IV

After the grim previous flick in the franchise, “The Horror Show,” this installment returns to the creative horror-comedy of the first two movies, minus the spirit of high adventure of the second. The film serves as a mostly-standalone sequel to the original House series, with a plot centered around another home that encounters a haunting. Roger Cobb, played by William Katt, is now married and living in a new house, but his life becomes complicated when he inherits an old family mansion on a deserted shoreline.
