Besides the scenery, nearly nothing of the books can be found in this movie. Where the books speak about the road to friendship, self-regulation of the boys, fairness and regard for others, the movie is only cheap pranks - not following the rules in the books, that a Schreckenstein prank must be funny for all, nothing gets destroyed...

Here, everything so wonderful in the books is destroyed. Very, very sad.

And just to add: I don't have a problem modernizing the story, bringing it into today's world. But ruining the story does not seem fair to the author and all the fans. And if you get the chance, grab an original book and read it. Or read it aloud for your kids... you will see, even in the 1960/70s setting, it still pleases.

I watched this movie together with my daughter and we both loved this movie the same as the underlying soundtrack. The movie is based on a book which was one of the common books that usually any of my friends got to know during our childhood. The film location (old castle) did really match the book and created a fantastic atmosphere. I would have loved to be one of the boys joining Burg Schreckenstein and experiencing lots of adventures. The dialogs are well done and not flat at all like one could expect. So this movie was just to lean back and enjoy this movie. The guest appearance of Harald Schmitt which is one of my former favourite late night talker could have been more entertaining.
