Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark



So as a kid i obviously loved horror, most of the shit i watch now i watched back then. I used to read alot of horror books but honestly as a teen i didn't read em as much and shifted more towards books about sex & drugs and all that shit, as well as books on filmmaking and wrestling autobiographies. Few horror books stayed with me, but Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark is one i remember digging alot but honestly i haven't read in close to 20 years. The film's trailer didn't do much for me but neither did IT back in 2017 and that is my favorite film of the decade. This is no IT, but fuck a duck,  this is a fun ass horror flick. This is everything i didn't know i needed right now. Likable outcast kids but in the 60s as opposed to the 80s, some Hammer/Universal inspired sets, an overall love of the genre plastered all over, a brief halloween setting. You can tell it was made with heart & passion.
