A remake that is fairly unnecessary, yet well done, Tobe Hooper's 1986 horror film is not the sort of movie made anymore. This is more or less a 1950s horror movie made in the 1980s featuring the sort of atmopshere, neighborhoods, and locations that don't actually exist anymore. It's a story of a child's nightmare and all that one might find scary.
As it is, the movie is not the most original, but it does have quite a bit of spirit to it. We enjoyed our watch of it, even though it ended up being one of the last movies Tobe Hooper made for a big studio. As always, find out our full thoughts above.
