If I saw this has a kid I would've loved it with its silliness and scares. It's a spoof of old day house mysteries - a fash of Amityville Horror but also the vibe of scary house stuff in old AIP films like Ghost in the Invisible Bikini.
There is starpower in Richard Benjamin and Paula Prentiss playing a husband and wife who move into an old house. There's Dracula (Jeffrey Tambour) and his girl trying to kick them out which is underdeveloped. The creatures in the house are fun.
The film has good ideas but can't quite string it together. Compares badly with say Love at First Bite.
The daughter, Kari Michaelson from Gimme a Break, takea a bath in a drawn out scene which is old school Corman. She was 20 (I googled it) but looks super young, uncomfortably so.
