976-EVIL II (also known as 976-EVIL 2: The Astral Factor) is a 1992 American direct-to-video supernatural horror film directed by Jim Wynorski.
Leonard "Spike" Johnson (Patrick O'Bryan) returns to battle the supernatural in a small Californian college town.
A pretty student, Robin, learns that her dean, Professor Grubeck, is a ghost, using astral projection and a satanic 976 "horrorscope" hotline to kill students.
The film was directed by Jim Wynorski who had gained a reputation for making a number of sequels, such as Deathstalker 2.
"[2] The only part of the film he liked was a sequence where a female student was meant to be sucked into a Pac-Man machine.
This was too expensive to film so Wynorski came up with the idea, based on a dream, where he recreated a scene from It's a Wonderful Life (1946).
