        This is an annual tradition with me and my son. We watched it a few weeks ago. Just a fun movie that kind of takes the ideas that kids have of monsters and runs with it. Definitely in the tradition of the old Universal Monster rally flicks which it tries to emulate.

        It's the kind of movie that would never be made now. Movies like this are either kid-oriented or a complete gorefest.

        Other than Gary Oldman, Duncan Regher is the last good Dracula in my opinion as well.

        The anniversary DVD has some great extras on it. The interviews with the cast and crew are much more honest than on most releases. Cool to see the kids grown up.

          A cool little film.

          Got a kick out of seeing the Aurora monster kits in the kids tree house

            It's a fun movie that's actually got some scares for younger kids.

                  I bought the DVD last year. I had never seen it before. I watched it and liked it alot. So I upgraded to the Blu-Ray this year. It's a fun movie.

                      ^I agree whole-heartedly with that article. I like The Goonies, but I do agree it has a kind of a "Neverlandish" charm about it, where as Monster Squad's kids are pretty much dead on me and my friends at the time, who were about the same age.

                        My buddy did a GREAT print of the movie - I framed my copy in my office -

                        I love that film - The Creature from the Black Lagoon re-imagining is awesome

                          "Wolfman's got nards!" = possibly the most profound statement ever. Kicking the Wolfman in the nards, will allow you time to hunt down a silver bullet. Nuff said!

                              The Goonies is an all time classic! Chunk, Sloth, and the Baby Ruth line! I don't know if Monster Squad can ever top the Goonies!
