There was also two scenes where the grandmother was naked. One scene was mild, it happen when they were playing hide and seek and when the grandmother come out of the crawl space her entire left butt cheek was out. That caught you completely off guard and the fact that she nonchalantly walked around with it out made it that make funnier. The other scene was during one of her psychotic episodes. The child heard weird noises and when the brother opened the door he saw a fully naked grandmother scratching at a door. The son turned around and said to his sister “I think I’m blind”. With these things being included in this movie it lessens the fear factor, in turn making it a bad scary
