a5c7b9f00b Young kids form a club that is devoted to monsters, but soon get more than they bargained for when Count Dracula adjourns to Earth, accompanied by Frankenstein's Monster, the Wolfman, the Mummy, and the Gillman. The uglies are in search of a powerful amulet that will grant them power to rule the world. Our heroes - the Monster Squad are the only ones daring to stand in their way.
A young group of monster fanatics attempt to save their hometown from Count Dracula and his monsters.
The evil Dracula (a suavely sinister Duncan Regehr) and his band of equally pernicious monsters – Frankenstein's monster (a very engaging Tom Noonan), the Wolfman, the Gillman and the Mummy – need to gain possession of an ancient powerful amulet so they can rule the world. It's up to a gaggle of misfit horror movie buff teenage boys – likable leader Sean Crenshaw (Andre Gower), bumbling fat kid Horace (the hilarious Brent Chalem), nervous Patrick (Robby Kriger), spunky little squirt Eugene (Michael Faustino), and token cool dude Randy (Ryan Lambert) – to stop the foul fiends before it's too late. Ably directed by Fred Dekker (who also gave us the terrific "Night of the Creeps"), with a really clever and inspired script by Dekker and Shane Black, a constant unflagging pace, excellent make-up f/x by the ever-reliable Stan Winston, beautifully sparkling and polished cinematography by Bruce Houghton, a rousing, majestic orchestral score by Bradford May, funky 80's slang (favorite words include "wuss," "jerkoid," and the immortal "nards"), some mild gore (the Wolfman gets blown in half in an especially grisly scene), and nifty 80's period touches (there's a "Miami Vice" dialogue reference and keep your eyes peeled for the "Robotech" t-shirt), this sweetly affectionate tongue-in-cheek homage to vintage golden oldie creature features has plenty of charm and energy to spare. What truly makes this film such a treat is the positively infectious sense of pure go-for-it good-natured fun that permeates every last loving frame. The kid leads all give highly appealing performances; they receive bang-up support from Stephen MachtSean's harried cop father Del, Mary Ellen TrainerSean's long-suffering mother Emily, Ashley BankSean's adorable little sister Phoebe, Stan ShawDel's sarcastic partner Detective Sapir, Leonardo Ciminothe friendly Scary German Guy, and Jason Harveymean bully E.J. A total blast!
Though I claim it is my second viewing of this film, some of the events and character features were so clear in my head that I can't believe I've only seen it once almost 20 years ago! <br/><br/>In any case, this is a solidly-crafted, fast-paced and witty spoof of the old Universal monster mashes with Count Dracula, Frankenstein's Monster, The Wolf Man, The Mummy and The Gill Man all taking part. Duncan Regehr scores besta nasty Dracula, but Jack Gwillim is a welcome presence in the prologue and finalehis eternal nemesis Abraham Van Helsing. Though essentially a kiddie film with a group of hardened horror addicts/misfitsits main protagonists, it doesn't shy away from gruesome and dangerous situations – the partner to the cop (father to the leader of the Squad) is blown up by Dracula; the Werewolf is himself made to explode in mid-air (a short-term demise, since he recomposes himself only to be shot down by the proverbial silver bullet); Dracula kidnaps and vampirizes three female students, etc. Predictably, the Frankenstein Monster is shown to be of a benign nature after all – he eventually befriends the kids and almost dispatches Dracula himself! <br/><br/>Amusingly enough, it was also quite refreshing to hear the boys swearing profusely and saying the word "virgin" a lot – without actually knowing what it means! Though I feel that GREMLINS (1984) is still the touchstone for this sort of "kiddie" horror comedy, THE MONSTER SQUAD lags not too far behind: it was actually nice to learn that this was no childhood fluke, and that the film still holds up well after all these years. By the way, I followed it with Dekker's previous effort – NIGHT OF THE CREEPS (1986).
Sharper than a stake in it's genre references, The Monster Squad appeals to cinephilewellteen sensibilities.
There's only one way - shoot him with a silver bullet! Even throwing him out of a window onto a bomb (or dynamite) won't work or old age.<br/><br/>Answer: Folklore says werewolves can be killed by silvers bullets and by removing the brain or heart from the body.
