‘Ghoulies ’ goes for stereotypical mystic plot
Charles Band has keyed his
ad campaign for “Ghoulies”
to capitalize on the summer
smash ’‘Gremlins.” Trailers
and TV ads suggest a plot
revolving around a seance that
went wrong and resulted with
a house full of small, ugly
creatures.
The film is less original
than that. It opens with a
satanic ceremony in which
power hungry Malcolm
Graves (Michael Des Barries)
gets set to sacrifice his infant
son. Mom saves the day and a
minion named Wolfgang {Jack
Nance) raises young John
(Peter Liapis), never to let him
know about his past.
Jump ahead twenty years.
John inherits his dad’s man
sion (where his dad lies in an
unmarked grave, unknown to
John). John finds strange oc
cult books everywhere and
feels some odd pull to experi
ment with the mystic arts. In
case viewers don’t follow,
Wolfgang plays the intrusive
narrator and keeps a running
commentary, explaining that
something “has John in its
grip."
If you haven’t figured it out
yet, Malcolm is working on
John from the grave, egging
him on to acquire enough
power to revive his dear oP
dad. John has no idea what’s
going on, but he likes the
power he’s getting, and he
wants more.
John’s live-in girlfriend,
Rebecca (Lisa Pilikan), thinks
John is getting spooky and
wants to get out. Meanwhile
the wierdest household pets
you can imagine are roaming
around the mansion by con
sent of master John.
This isn’t the scariest or
most original “B” horror flick
around to be sure, but there
are some surprisingly pleasant
highlights. Director Luca Ber
covici can't stage shocks to
save his soul but is marvelous
ly adept at creating a cast of
characters that are a joy to

The stock stereotypes that
usually feature people like
these are taken a few steps fur
ther under Bercovici’s
guidance. Here the characters
interrelate like real people,
bantering and joking with the
joviality of friends on a Satur
day night.
The film only suffers during
the moments of horror, for ex
ample when creatures attack
lovable couples, when Daddy
rises from the grave and
chokes people with his eight
foot tongue, when father and
son battle it out with
pyrotechnic sorcery — that
sort of stuff.
These moments are neither
scary nor shocking, but mere
ly dull versions of routine
scenes. The only interesting
idea is a rather unnerving im
age of the corpses worming
their way to the basement.
