A murderer somehow breaks free from a maximum security prison to break into a school to hug his godson.

It’s terrible writing just like the other movies, but it’s watchable.

The founder of that particular wizarding school was a dick, left, and yet still founded house Slytherin. He left a dickish trap in the school to, apparently, continue to be a dick from beyond the grave.

And stuff. Don’t think about it too hard. It’s watchable but childish like all the others.

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.
