A psychologist goes insane when his wife dies, and he drags his daughter into a life of the paranormal.

A really straightforward and tame movie. It's absolutely nothing compared to the awe that 80s kids movies have, and I would never recommend it to kids with a brain.

An old man is surprised to learn has has 19 year old daughter, who becomes embroiled in a web of vengeance and violence set against him.

I really like this movie. It might play out as too flat for most people, but for me the character was well-crafted and acted.

Like few movies, He Never Died explores age and power at its extreme. Fans of Interview with the Vampire - (1994 movie), for example, should appreciate such elements.

A man regrets the wedge between himself and his son, and tries to apologize. Or something.

It's definitely on-par with the first, and worth the watch if you like the other.
