An all original journey into the queer experience. Art at its highest. I haven't watched a movie that made me think this much since watching movies like, Donnie Darko, Kids, Virgin Suicides, Fire Walk With Me, etc. Truly a generational rarity. Perfect soundtrack, perfect score by Alex G. A perfect movie for people who enjoy being challenged by art.

I really like this series. YES, it's targeted at a slightly younger demo. Yes, it has teen drama. YES, it isn't the original series. I'm cool with that. I grew up watching and reading goosebumps. I loved it. I've re-read the books a thousand times, and watched the original series over and again. I'm glad they took a new direction with this. I'm glad it's for a younger audience. That to me is what goosebumps has always been about. Youth. If they had made a shot for shot remake, or done it in the 90's, I don't think it would be genuine to the original idea. Lots of old heads bashing on this for it being different. Chill. You can still watch the original. No one took it away, they just passed the torch. I always wished goosebumps followed a core group through an intertwined story. This delivers!

This movie IS a little corny. But it's a classic 90s action flick. It knows how to make fun of itself (Billy standing in front of the double dragon arcade machine? Come on), it's packed with pretty great effects for the time, all practical mind you, and it's just downright fun. If you're looking for a modern action flick, this may not be for you. If you're looking for something more along the line of Batman Forever, or STEEL, this is your jam. It's like a live action comic book or video game, which for films of this genre I have always thought worked. So get yourself a pizza, maybe even a big gulp, and kick back with a 90's classic.
