Hi,

I saw this around 1988 or 89. I don't think it was in 1990 or later. I
thought I remember the title being called "Scared to Death", however all
the info from IMDB does not indicate that's what it was.

It was a story about a family that moved to this house. (Yea, I know! How
many can there be?!!)

Anyway, It was a husband and wife with two kids...(brother and sister). I
remember towards the end the siblings were running through a tunnel with
this thing chasing after them...(that was the really scary part and the
part I remember the most) Maybe they were looking for their lost dog when
this happened? I remember the girl hearing strang noises or seeing
something weird. I think the house may have burned down or sunk into the
ground in the end.

Sorry I don't remember much more about it. The thing that was running
after them was not a ghost, it may have been a guy who had died and came
back to life looking much different than a regular person.

This was not Nightmare, Jason or anything like that. I'm pretty sure they
did not make another one.

Thanks,

Barney
