¿Le temes a la oscuridad?

Having never seen either of the previous versions of the show, nor read any of the books, I wasn't really sure what this was when I rented it. But it's October, and the cover art looked spooky enough for a pre-Halloween watch. And I have to say, I quite enjoyed it. It had a few genuinely creepy moments (which so many 'horror' films lack these days) while being age appropriate to its intended tween audience. The acting and production value were such that, with some minor re-editing, this easily could have been released as a feature film, and one I probably would have enjoyed in a theater.

I loved this show when I was a kid and now that it is new again I love it even more. I hope they make more

I don't know if some of these other reviewers are remembering the original through rose colored glasses or what. I absolutely loved the original as a kid and as soon as I found the dvd's on Amazon, I bought them to re-live with my kids. My kids quickly loved it too, however, I discovered a few episodes that made it apparent that I forgot just how cheesy some of them were. Now to the new. Every time I here of a re-boot or re-make I get the dreaded feeling that despite how much I want to love it, it will suck. Not the case here. Obviously you can't expect it to be identical, but I found the "creepy" level even higher than a lot of the originals! I found the cast to be likeable and the story to be on par with the better ones of the original. People also have to keep in mind, this is geared toward kids. You have to realize that they aren't setting out to be unbearably scary. For creepy entertainment that you can enjoy with your kids, it hits the nail on the head. Only downside is that it appears to be just the three episodes. Hope there are more to come!

I was definitely prepared for this to be a more tame version that really reduces the creepiness, but thankfully was proven wrong. Plus the characters are solid as well.

Vibes from IT and the original AYAOTD. Good entertainment for teens and adults.
