    Pretty good for a horror film. It's entertaining and it has great jump scares. I want a part two, but I don't see it coming.

    Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark’ is one of the best horror movies I've ever seen. The idea of a haunted book writing terrifying stories that come to life is so unique and creative. I loved how each scary story felt different and kept me on the edge of my seat. The atmosphere was dark and eerie, and the monsters looked really creepy and well-made. The story of Stella and her friends trying to survive and stop the curse was exciting and emotional. It’s not just a horror movie – it has heart too. I seriously hope they make a second part soon, because I’m dying to see what happens next!"

    The movie was okay, I liked it as far as something scary. But I wouldn’t really watch it again. It was decent but not what I was expecting it to be.

    This is such a fantastic movie. It still is one of my favorite horror movies of all time, including the R rated ones.

    Good enough to watch anytime...not just around Halloween

    I love this movie. It's intense and has wonderful and realistic prosthetics and make up for the monsters. Especially the Jangly Man. Entertaining and awesome and wonderful story building that is respectful to the books

    This is reminiscent of Trick 'r Treat (2007) but nowhere near as good. It also reminded me of Goosebumps (2015) but it was less memorable although arguably equally good. One final reference… Nightbooks (2021) but way less intense. That shows how unoriginal this film is, because all I can think about are other films. It’s well made, well acted and looks really great etc. but that is not really enough, it needs to be memorable and I took away almost nothing from this except that the ending was convenient and overly sentimental whilst leaving it open for a sequel which I probably won't watch. It’s an adequate filler film that’s better than average but less than memorable.

    Loved that movie, great characters, excellent story line. Not another mindless slasher movie. Would love to see a second movie to follow up on what happens next, does stella get her friends back, does Ramone survive his time in the military, do stella and Ramone have a relationship, so many questions!!! Definitely recommend!

    This is a solid horror movie, thanks to its source material, its freakish monsters, its definite jump scares and good performances by Colletti and Garza.

    This is dreadful. Rinsed in blue wash, it's a Stranger Things wanna be. Younger viewers go and watch the classics not this garbage.
