Deadly Friend is the 1986 horror film that Randy Charles Johnson reviews in the source video. His relationship to it is as a critic, and his view is negative: he says the film makes no sense and compares it to Superman IV.
In Randy's telling, the film's resurrection plot, the robot-related head injury, and the ending are all examples of why he thinks the movie fails logically.
Randy's Review
Randy says the movie flopped at the box office and calls it "the Superman 4 of horror movies." He uses that comparison to argue that the story is incoherent rather than effective horror.
Production Notes In The Review
He also says Wes Craven was originally going to direct Superman 4, but that he was replaced after conflicts with Christopher Reeve. Those comments appear as part of Randy's review commentary, not as independently verified background in the transcript.
