This is a guilty pleasure pick. I watched this movie so many times as a kid i know every line verbatim. It introduced me to Howie Mandel. It introduced me to The Talking Heads. It introduced me to Nick Lowe. Frank Whaley's "Boy" terrified me. It has all the feels. Children running around causing havoc all night to their worst enemies. Whats better than that??
I was young when I saw this for the first time, so it creeped me out. Nice guilty pleasure pick. It is pretty sweet that it introduced a lot of youngsters to the Talking Heads.
ReplyDeleteHowie Mandel will not be making my list. Fred Savage? Oh yeah.
ReplyDeleteI'm due for a re-watch of this one. I don't think I've seen it since the early to mid-90s.
I love forcing Abby to watch 80s movies because she's always baffled by how weird they are. So, yeah, I maybe see some Little Monsters happening in our future.
So Pinocchio 3000 isn't on your list, John?!
DeleteMy whole top 10 is just Howie Mandel movies
ReplyDeleteMy top ten is just episodes of Howie Do It
