From a Technical View...
This really passes the test. Its witty, its filmed well, it plays a good line between Campy and Actual Horror(Kinda Scares You As A Kid) and the acting was strong. I think it was a great cast, typical 80's crew but it adds to the charm. Idk, maybe it's just one of those films that you have to grow up with but I pop it in on a regular basis and it never disappoints... I see the argument on here and I'll also add, Monster Squad>>>>>The Goonies...
Kick him in the Nads!!!!
