I'm not sure how I went 20 years without seeing this one. I only thought to watch it now because I just found out it was (co-)written by Shane Black (Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, Last Boyscout, Lethal Weapon). It seems like just the kind of thing I would have loved as a kid. As...( read more)
Eugene: Creature stole my Twinkie!
Somehow I missed this movie as a child, but its quite enjoyable. A mix of the Goonies with the old Hammer Horror features. It has a mix of 80s cheese, some clever screenplay moments, decent effects for the type of movie this is, and a non-ser...( read more)
Monster Squad is one of my favorite childhood movies. I'm so glad that I finally found it on DVD. It is about a small town that is the battleground for a team of monsters: Dracula, Frankenstein, Gill Man (Creature from the Black Lagoon, NOT the Loch Ness Monster), Wolfman, and th...( read more)
Directed by the same guy who helmed the intolerable Night of the Creeps, this is about five times as clever and entertaining, with some eminently quotable lines. I intend to use "Wolfman's got nards!" in school, my personal life, and at the workplace. Overall, though, the movie i...( read more)
"wolfman's got nards".
I grew up on this flick, having seen it some 15 times. it may not be great, but i love it.
What better time to be a child than when this movie hit the shelves? Referred to as the poor man's Goonies, The Monster Squad was the sci-fi/horror version of adventurous kids who get into too much mischief. This movie was amazing it had everything, Monsters, Guns, Magic Jewels, ...( read more)
Cult classic B-movie about a group of young kids intent on saving the world from well known monsters such as a convincingly evil Dracula and the wolf man, amongst others. Loved it as a child and even to this day. It has lasting qualities that have stayed with me.
A campy but enjoyable film of wonder in the mold of The Lost Boys meets The Goonies.
I don't care how cheesy it is now, I still love watching it. It brings me back to the days when I was a child and always waiting for this movie to air. I can still sit through this until the end. This had the best swamp creature ever.

You know, the Goonies was good as is. They really didn't have to make it again.
Then again, Shane Black's wit really shines through in the film... Maybe it was worth it, after all.
Can't wait for the dvd release! July 24th... the day before I head to San Diego for Comic-Con!
I just got an email today saying it's finally coming to DVD on July 24, 2007.
