Very typical of the 80s productions at least aesthetically, "The Monster Squad" looks at the same time as a mix between "The Goonies" and a parody of the old films of the Hammer.
If he does not have the paw of a Zemeckis or a Spielberg, the director Fred Dekker nevertheless ensures the spectacle thanks to a good dose of second degree assumed. Efficient, funny, a little clumsy too, but fundamentally entertaining.
Allergic to the 80s, abstain!
