One last chance to traumatize your children.
Release Date: August 14, 1987
Starring: Andre Gower, Duncan Regehr
Genre: Horror comedy
Plot Summary: After obtaining Van Helsing's diary, a group of kids discover that Count Dracula is searching for an amulet that will open a hole between dimensions and send the world into darkness. With the help of Frankenstein's monster, they'll need to defeat Dracula, the Wolf Man, the Mummy and Gill-man to save the universe.
Favorite Scene: When the kids are leaving Scary German Guy's house and Horace comments that he knows a lot about monsters. It's an extremely serious, emotional scene and it's a standout for me.
Notable Trivia: There's a scene where Frankenstein's monster approaches Phoebe, who is sitting by the water. This was inspired by a scene in Frankenstein, although the outcomes are very different.
Final Thoughts: This is a very 80's movie and it's definitely not politically correct. If you're going to let your children watch it, maybe have a talk with them afterwards about why some of the things in this movie aren't okay to say. Also, the movie could potentially be very frightening to some kids, so if your children scare easily, this may not be the best movie for them. I've posted about the movie before if you want to know a little more about it.
