"Twice" as dumb....

Mister-6

When your main exposure to a movie is at 3 a.m. on Cinemax, that's not a good sign.

So it is with "Twice Dead", the old "family-moves-into-a-haunted-house-and-battles-vicious-gang" plot with the only twist of having "Diff'rent Strokes" vet/parolee Bridges in the cast.

This hack job (get it? Yuk-yuk.) is so cheaply made as to have you believe the ghost in this house uses fishing line to levitate objects and that actors don't really need acting classes when there's the direct-to-video market.  'Nuff said.

Any good parts?  The girl playing Tina (Spradling) was cute; too bad she plays her last scene electrocuted while astraddle her boyfriend (don't even go there).

Other than that, "Twice Dead" is dead on arrival; call the morgue.

One star, for Spradling's charms.  Now playing in the discount bin at your local video store.
