Fulci's second contribution to the series begins with a typically gory scene worthy of the director deemed the sultan of splatter. A masked man breaks into a couple's home and brutally murders them in an extremely sadistic fashion leaving their two children orphaned and haunted by the loss of their parents. After this violent prologue the film takes an unexpected turn into the realm of modern-day fairy tales as the grieving children conjure a supernatural force that brings their parents back to life. This tender yet desperate act results in disastrous consequences as the parents attempt to both comfort their children and exact revenge on their murderer. The Sweet House Of Horrors is a strange departure for Fulci who creates an unusual mix of genres ranging from his trademark horror to some unexpected moments of comedy.
