The sequel to Night Trap in all but name, starring Corey Haim and Deborah Harry.  There are now several traps per room that require priming - but prime too many and the power system will overload and reset them all.  Once the FMV of an intruder kicks in you have to pause the game, figure out where the enemy is and which trap they are near, un-pause, move the cursor from the map to the traps, and prime and trigger the right one.  Although the map shows enemy locations, sometimes there just isn't enough warning and this makes the game much harder than Night Trap, and consequentially more frustrating - it is possible to reach the "Game Over" screen in less than 2 minutes of play.  The FMV is perhaps of slightly higher quality, but the game isn't as enjoyable and due to the lack of teenage girls in negligees, it never achieved the same notoriety and success.
