While there is no debating that "Ernest Goes to Camp" will always be the greatest Ernest film, "Scared Stupid" ranks up there -- possibly third behind "Ernest Goes to Jail". It has classic Ernest humor, some good subplots, an interesting guest star (Eartha Kitt) and troll work from the Chiodo Brothers (the guys who made the Killer Klowns).
Sure, this is more of a kid film, but if you have kids or grew up with it, it may hold a special place in your heart. For kids who may not be old enough to watch a real Halloween movie without being scared, this is a good transition piece -- still has monsters, but shouldn't be too scary.
