Poltergeist clouds?
Those clouds that roll in just before the ghost riders appear look exactly like the clouds that form over the house in Poltergesit. Was that borrowed from the Poltergeist movie? It looks like the exact same special effect.
shareThat scene almost made me hate the movie. Considering this was made in 1998, CGI should have been much better and that whole ghost rider or whatever scene was irrelevant and pointless (unless I missed a major plot line).
