976-Evil. 1988.

Hoax, a young bullied teen who lives with his over bearing religious mother and tough boy cousin Spike, finds a number to receive a horror scope but gives him supernatural powers.

Freddy Krueger star Robert Englund takes his turn in the director's chair for this decent 80s horror, yeah it is a cheese fest but decently done. Sandy Dennis plays the religious mother to Hoax that fish from the sky and she thinks god is speaking to her. Stephen Geoffreys plays the young Hoax who seeks the help of the supernatural to get even with those around him. Robert Picardo plays Mark Dark who created the phone scopes. The picture quality is alot better for this release and sound is sharper so Eureka did a decent job from the VHS era only small problem i had is one scene has been shortened and at least we get to see a hand getting cut off a bit better.
