Goosebumps 2 | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

You could certainly do a lot worse than this bouncy horror/comedy that's sure to please fans of [R.L.] Stine's long-running novel series.

The film loses its charm and gets closer to a bad direct-to-video sequel from the 90s. [Full Review in Spanish]

It just wasn't very creative or fun scary.

Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween follows a lot of the same story beats as the first film but still displays some clever writing and provides audiences with an entertaining, family-friendly 90-minute horror romp.

As the monsters proliferate, the film grows increasingly disinterested in character. Instead, like too many kid-oriented Halloween movies, it becomes infatuated with a sort of candy-colored, barely controlled chaos.
