You only can feel sympathetic for Gramps, as while he resorts to being very sad when he sees himself, decides to go the heck with it and decides to have loads of fun with his descendant. Royal Dano is wonderful as Gramps, who starts out right away as a villain only to reveal his true nature upon unmasking himself and in his exact words, “waited 70 years for some jackass to help unbury him”. It is then we met the now adult Jesse, played by Arye Gross with his friend Charlie, played by Fright Night’s Jonathan Stark, the film’s hilarious comic relief (for an 80’s film). The film’s opening sequence is set in the 60’s and involves Jesse’s parents, who find themselves killed by the potential villain of the film, the zombie cowboy Slim Razor. In addition, the decision was made to make the film more comical and bring family to life in the form of Jesse and Gramps. A year later, the producers and creator Ethan Wiley decided to capitalize on the film’s success and make a thematic sequel, hence the subtitle “The Second Story” with Wiley himself taking over as director.
The film would bring many surprises and madness in the film.
