Ha ha, so I'm not the only person who thought that was the most screwed up dub in the history of movies, as I can see there and with others on this board!
shareThis movie was on HBO last night...I saw this scene and I was like uhh...let a 3 year old girl play in the basement with some creepy old guy like Yorku?
shareWithout question the WORST voice over dub in history.
Head over to www.fast-rewind.com to catch the story where Aubrey Jene (the girl who played the little girl in the movie) tells the site that Kerri Green (the red-haired girl who played the older daughter) is actually responsible for the dub. She explains that it was done during post production.
This had bothered me (and apparently many others around here as well) for years.

That was a great tip to check out, thanks! Nice to see her online trying to set the record straight. The thing that bugs me so much is, couldn't they get ANY other little kid to do it? Really, they obviously didn't have her on set, but NO ONE had a kid nearby? It wouldn't have been hard to draw up the contract papers for one little dub.
You know, when I first saw the movie on the big screen, I remember that moment so clearly because there was a very obvious, noticeable murmuring among the audience when that voice was heard!
You can even tell that Kerri Green did the little girl's lisp in the dub!

LMAO! I was watching this on calbe a few days ago and I aksed my wife is she was her mother would she let her daughter go down into a dark are of the boat with no other adult with a creepy old man? I mean come on! I guess things then were not as bad (or at least not as publisized) as they are now so maybe nobody thought anything of it when using this scene in the movie.
sharePeople back then in the mid 80s didn't worry so much about pedophiles because there wasn't all these news outlets reporting every single depraved thing that ever happens anywhere on the planet like they do today . The guy was half-retarded so it seemed perfectly OK as a play partner for the little girl . And you have to consider the Chesters knew that guy had the mentality of a little kd and knew she as safe . Just because the movie didn't show parts where they get to know the Yorku doesn't mean therefore that he was some strange old guy that shouldn't be trusted . You must be one of those parents who worries way too much .
shareI remember when I saw this in 85 or 86 I thought the dub was bad. I seen it tonight 25 years later and as soon as that little girl started talking I remembered about the bad dub. I came here to IMDB to see if anyone else noticed and I guess I'm not the only one either.
shareMy god, I thought wondered why her voice was so horrible, now I know!
shareThey should have just thrown that part out. I mean it has nothing to do with the movie, anyway.
That little girl was SOOOO cute.
I had no idea of what you were all talking about until I rented it from netflix and WOW that really is terrible dubbing!!!! LoL
shareha! It was on HDNet Movie channel tonight and my wife and I were watching and I said to her, "watch, coming up here in a second is the worst voice overdub EVER in a movie" and she just was like WTF? Then after it aired, she was like "DAMN, you were right!" LOL!
--Insert clever signature here --
Last night, I watched the very end of Summer Rental, but did not see the awful dub job. However, just seeing the final minutes of the film was enough to remind me of the dubbing, and I honestly came to this message board for the sole purpose of seeing if anyone else had posted about this dubbed line.
It's so bad, it's truly jarring when the line about Yorku is uttered. Simply horrendous.
Yeah, pointless and sloppy editing. We the audience would still get the point that the girl and Yorku were playing down below during the race. That dialog was totally unnecessary.
Then again, lots of other bits of the movie are kind of uneven. Maybe they ran out of time or money and had to cut short post production?

I know! It's crazy!
shareI came here just for this. Lol.
