Few movies are brave enough to put “stupid” in their title, but Ernest Scared Stupid has no illusions about what it is. Clearly meant for children (and only children) the comedy is incredibly juvenile and slapstick-ish. And the acting, if it can be called that, is horrendous. The sets, costumes, and special effects are also terrible, looking especially fake and cheap. Lacking the charm and fun of the earlier films, Ernest Scared Stupid is complete garbage.

I disagree with other reviewers like Dann. The movie looked great, employing the best special effects of its day. Ernest has wild facial expressions. He's like the Jim Carrey of his day. Young ones will enjoy it. Not so much for older adults. Although I am young at heart, even I had trouble getting into this film. The film is really targeted towards the young ones.
