The first Casper movies was a really fun movie with Bill Pullman and Christina Ricci acting alongside the ghost. It was a hit, so of course there would be a second movie. That's where things got confusing for me. Full disclosure about this movie. When it came out I was pretty young, so I didn't really know what a prequel was. No one explained that concept to me. The second Casper movie is a prequel to the first, so when I saw it after seeing the first movie, I was completely confused. Nothing made sense and I was too embarrassed to ask.
Instead of Christina Ricci and Bill Pullman, this movie has Steve Guttenberg and Pauly Shore. I don't like that trade. That's not an even trade. Luckily Rodney Dangerfield is in it, and I'm always down to see him.
