    Sadly I do remember witchboard. I loved the sequel as a kid and want to own it to this day simply because of how awful it truly is. There is this ridiculous car chase where if you watch out the windows when they do in the car scenes you can clearly see he is driving no more than 20 MPH. Ahhh childhood cheese, you gotta love it.
