    Lots of goofy humor and slapstick gags.
    IN A NUTSHELL: A teenage girl, who accidentally releases an ancient and mischievous spirit on Halloween which causes decorations to come alive and wreak havoc, must team up with the last person she'd want to in order to save their town - her father.

    The spooky Halloween flick was directed by Jeff Wadlow. The screenplay was written by Todd Berger and Robert Rugan based on the story by John R. Morey.

    THINGS I LIKED: Marlon Wayans headlines this frightfully fun Halloween special on Netflix. He provides most of the comic relief and is also one of the producers. His over-the-top performance is delightful and dependable.

    Lauren Lapkus, John Michael Higgins, and Rob Riggle made me laugh every time they were on screen. I always like them in anything they're in.

    The leading ladies (mother & daughter) are Kelly Rowland and Priah Ferguson. The last time we saw Priah in something was in the popular TV show "Stranger Things." Creepy spiders. Ick! Good special effects though!

    Lots of goofy humor and slapstick gags.

    The action is almost non-stop.

    I loved the Lin Manuel Miranda "Hamilton" costume

    THINGS I DIDN'T LIKE: Some of the props and Halloween decorations that are turned alive look super fake.

    It's pretty silly and goofy but that's what makes it a good Halloween choice for kids this year.

    TIPS FOR PARENTS: Some "mild" profanity Some images may frighten young children. The movie is probably best for ages 10 and up.

    Bloodless Violence Destruction and spooky mayhem The dad tries to explain everything away with scientific facts.

    A girl uses a Ouija app to communicate with a dead woman.

    Its alright
    Can you watch this with your 9YO? Yes. Should you though? I wouldn't see why... Knowing there are probably over 100 better movies you could watch together in this category.

    (para-norman, nightmare before Christmas, Hocus pocus 1+2, the haunted mansion, and many many more...)

    This movie is ok... If it was on again somewhere, i wouldn't disgustingly switch a channel (although the dad is so annoying, that it's borderline there...) but i wouldn't choose to watch it again either...

    Its clearly made for children, instead of made for both children and adults (which is how you make a cult film)...

    The characters are e-xtremely shallow, the movie's plot is lazily written... The acting is over the top, not in a good way, even the color scheme of the film is childish.
