Le Mauvais Esprit d'Halloween

A family arrive in a small town on the eve of Halloween, and discover a community with a love of Halloween, and an interesting history.

Despite some of the less than favourable reviews, I really did enjoy this, it plays exactly as you'd expect, it's super camp, it's outrageous, but it's funny and heartwarming, and there's some really nice moments between Sydney and her dad. Some nice light entertainment for a change.

It's not afraid to poke fun of the usual horror stereotypes, it even dares to take the Mickey out of vegan food.

Marlon Wayans was great I thought, Kelly Rowland was sweet, nice acting in general, character wise I thought The Mayor and Victoria were fun.

They've definitely left this open for a second, and after this, bring it on. Don't go into this expecting horror, expect an entertaining comedy caper.

8/10.

RATED 8/10 Language: English Source: Netflix RECOMMENDED

First of all, this is horror movie for kids at the same time it is not childish. Watchable for adults and recommended for kids.

The cast is good and story is OK. The CG work is adequate for the movie. The story is bit templated and predictable but it was overcome by the entertaining screenplay. There is no dull moment and I really loved the skeleton fight sequence.

There is no scary sequences and beware of the arachnophobia. Best movie to enjoy with family in weekend.

I really can't believe all of these bad ratings. This was a great kids Halloween film and it was actually scary in parts and I'm an adult. There were some laugh out loud scenes as well as good special effects and jumps. It is an all around entertaining family film. It definitely exceeded my expectations. Marlon Wayans was great in the lead and had great chemistry with the actress who plays his daughter and of course his wife. Scenes with spiders and clowns literally were creepy. I jumped in several parts and was surprised by that given it is a children's film. Those who are bashing it need to lighten up. What did you expect....an Oscar worthy film?

Look, this movie is a whole lot like others of it's kind, ehm Goosebumps. So what? You can like them both. This is a fun, family Halloween movie that does better than most and is worth a watch.

The performances are good and most of the visual effects look pretty cool. It's got a little lag in the middle, but it's still not horribly grinding.

It's creepy enough but still fun and most of the humor lands. It's not going to do anything you haven't already seen before, but if you're like me and always looking for new, quality family flicks to add to your Halloween watchlist, you could do a whole lot worse.

This movie was barely tolerable, primarily due to the fact that Priahs performance was awful. No emotion or expression. Monotone and forced. She was good in stranger things but fell short in this film. Kelly Rowland was subpar. Marlons acting was fine but his character wasnt likeable. Dont even get me started on the mayors accent🙄. This is basically something to watch when youve finished all your halloween favorites, if you remember it exists because lets be honest, its forgettable. Which sucks because the potential was so there, the plot was good but the characters just werent strong enough to support.
