I find David Warner creepy in whatever he's in, even when he's playing the good guy.
sure you don't expect somebody you know to be beheaded by a random piece of flying glass in the street, especially shortly after somebody else you know got skewered by a falling lightning rod...
Life is full of those amazing co-incidences, really it is. It only surprises me that the (on-screen) media didn't get hold of it, and turn it into a tabloid currents program 'Child of Doom - Who will be Next???' item, with the presenter then being electricuted by the power cables in the TV studio. No-one ever seems to *notice*, or put 2+2 together except for the one person that no-one listens to. That's one of the rules of the genre, and particularly of any sequels, when the rules become the raison d'etre (forget plot development).
It's a similar scenario (as you say) with Michael Myers: is he just another psycopath? Or is he really the Boogie Man? Sequels give you the answer. (As does the novelisation of the film, which I read once ... I'll have to see if I still have that at home somewhere.)
Devil-Dad's disappointment in his son = >:D
(We saw the sequel on TV the other night. Forgettable.)
