Zombie Town

Even in my adult age, I still enjoy family Halloween flics. There are plenty of cheesy fun low budget family Halloween films out there that can have a certain charm to them. This really doesn't have too much of anything. I can handle 2nd rate teen acting but this gives off bad Disney channel vibes. The score is generic and overall makes the movie feel like a bad Nickelodeon movie. I was hoping some of the older cast was going to make it tolerable but they're written terribly and you can tell it was just a paycheck for them. It's a once watch and forget about it after. It's overall boring lacking any real substance. Your kids may dig it, but I'm even sure they'll be bored.

I love RL Stine. This was not good, even that feels like an understatement. The plot is terrible or at best terribly executed. The editing was awful. The movie skips things a bit in places. The main characters are not ones you even care to root for (why is the guy always peeing? Why do they have a sweet moment then act like enemies the next second?). The relationship between the 2 is non-existent and very inconsistent, there's no growth. Even the character by Dan Aykroyd is just dumb- he knows what he did, doesnt seem to care then all of a sudden has a "realization"... It's just the worst RL Stine adaptation to date and the director/producer/writers should look into careers outside of film. I don't even leave reviews and had to for this one to maybe save someone else from losing an hour and a half of life to this monstrosity.

This is a really bad movie. It's hilarious to me how unlikable the main character is. He is totally pretentious and thinks he's better than everyone around him. This movie did the whole "nerd" gets the girl routine except he's not a nerd hes a jerk. But I've never seen it done in such a poorly done way before. The person who is supposed to be the "jerk" is actually more likable than the so called protagonist.

The rest of the movie is a tax write off. I don't mind Goosebumps I remember those fondly from back in the day. I knew to expect a childish movie but this isn't a childish movie its just a horrible movie. I can't imagine what they paid the few big names actors who are in this movie.

Usually its a meme when they say highschoolers look 30. For some strange reason in the 90s they loved casting people way too old to play highschoolers. But this movie actually does that here in 2023. LOL both the leads are actually going to turn 30 next year and are playing kids in highschool. It makes it that much worse.

The absolute greatest part of this movie is in the post credits where Dan Aykroyd gives a little goodbye speech to the cast at the finish of production. It's funny because you can just tell he knows how cringe it is that he is giving props to the makers of this movie.

Not horrible, not good, just kind of an okay movie, which has two former great comedians in the movie. Chevy Chase and Dan Akroyd used to be comedy legends and make great films, this was more of a paycheck movie for them.

The other actors are okay, once again not horrible, not good, there is a story there but it has no pacing, no great set designs, nothing original.

So why watch this movie, if you like zombie movies, then there are a lot worse movies you can watch. This is not a movie you will be thinking about for the next week, it is a "I have two hours to waste and I love zombie movies" type of movie.

I got interested in watching it because Chevy Chase and Dan Akroyd were starring in it. The first disappointment though was they both only have tiny supporting roles. The rest of the movie is full of B-movie actors, with little actor's chemistry or charisma. Bummer.

The realy let down though is that it fails to become funny, AT ALL. A few smirks at the start, that was all. This zombie genre has been chewed to pieces and it is quite difficult to make a really original zombie flick.

Not any good then? This shouldnt be featured in cinemas, this is sub par tv movie quality.

Nice try, but huge fail. To be avoided...
