I'm not a scary movie person but I thought "how scary could a kid's movie be right?" It turns out that a kid's movie can be pretty scary! As Halloween draws near three friends are determined to uncover the secrets of the creepy house in their neighbourhood. Their detective works leads them to uncover more than they bargained for. Fear not dear parent, all is well that ends well but it is not without it's jump scares and creepy as moments.
The CGI is not all that good but we got drawn into the story and atmosphere of the movie and didn't notice it after a while.
Rating: Monster House was a good movie and there was no way we saw the ending coming but it is not for the faint hearted. We will probably watch it again sometime in the future for a few thrills around Halloween.
Naughty bits: If you and your older (10+) child enjoy scary things then you will like Monster House but your kid has to be a brave soul because this movie is seriously creepy! Definitely NOT suitable for younger and sensitive children as they will have nightmares. Monster House is rated PG but it's bordering on 13+.Snacks: Individually wrapped candy
