Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark (2019)

Rated: PG-13 - Runtime: 111 min
tesg’s Rating: Three stars (out of four)

Let us take you back to Halloween 1968 where kids end up in a haunted house and take a book belonging to Sarah. Horror stories start to appear on blank pages in the book and then actually happen.

The movie looks pretty great and is paced relatively well. Guillermo del Toro had a minor hand in this so the monsters look pretty amazing. There’s a cool drive-in scene to boot.

At a PG-13 rating, I again have to wonder just how the hell Annabelle Comes Home ended up with an R. This is FAR scarier and more graphic.
