What do you want from a repeating nightmare? Indeed, since "the same" means creepy Angus Scrimm tall-manning from mausoleum to mausoleum we'll take it. The boys are back on a cross- country chase of the Tall Man and company, this time with some help from a tough woman, Rocky, and a tough kid Tommy, who board the 1970 Barricuda (426 Hemi) for a truly exciting road trip. The portrayal of the dead towns is truly chilling, as it becomes clear that the Tall Man isn't only mining the dead bodies of America, but, like the Grinch, leaving only "crumbs much too small for the other Whos' mouses". The final copyright warning on the picture warns of "civil liability, criminal prosecutiond, and the wrath of the tall man."</div> <bR> <div> * Blood * Violent * Strong Language * Sexual Situations *</div> <div> * Brief Nudity * Gory *</div> <bR> <div> Plot Summary: In a coma after the last showdown with th tall man, Mike has a near death experience in which his dead big brother tells him  to stay away fronm thae light after which he awakens to a zombie nurse whom he fights off with her own surgical tool. Jerry rushes in in time to get a mouthful of the yellow slime squirting from ger punctured yrellow goiter and as she collapses, a phantasm ball emerges from her head observes the boys with a human eye in it's side and flies off. They flee the hospital and find dead brother Jody there alive and well, but not for long. He is sucked into a ball. From within the ball he warns them that the tall man is coming and he attempts to ball him, but is cooked by the tall man and his ball falls to the floor with a thud. Controlled by the tall man, mike glides off. Reggie gets a map and heads for Holtsville in his Plymouth Barracuda. Welcome to Holtsville reads the sign, the population number x-ed out, due to the "poison gas accident". Reggie investigates the empty town, and soon bumps into an attractive young woman leaving the town. After he takes her pistol, a goon bats him over the head. The two goon friends of the woman load him into his own trunk and drive him out to a mansion. They also have a pink hearse. As the leader goes aound to the back, the couple kick in the front door. Rufus shoots an oldster in the back of the head. As the head explodes they notice that it was a puppet. The doors to the house close and a little boy runs through tunnels in the house before he is briefly captured. He throws an axe in the woman's face and slits Rufus' throat with a razor edged frisbee before trapping the third in a pit. He releases Reggie from the trunk and they bury the bodies beside those of the other people who "bother" him. At dusk the boy suggests that they go in before the tall man's little friends come out. His father was the first in their town as sherrif to visit the new owners of the funeral home. Looking why his fathers grave was never filled in, tommy and mother observe the tall man pull up in his hearse.

When Reg becomes lost, dead ball tells them to go right. There they find Rocky hitchhiking and they join forces to fight the big man Bolton home of the sproing apple festival and the largest gothic mausoleaum in the western united states. Sounds like the place. They stop at a holtel where reg orders a double bed to get rocky. The hotel clerk advises them to avoid Bolton, due to the plague. Tim has to sleep in the car. Reg wants sex, and rocky finally gives in to s&m, but only to cuff him up so she can sleep. Lost again, three hearses with short drivers pass, this is the place.
