Fun and educationali
I pretty much grew up in this movie and even as a kid I always just enjoyed it. It was creepy and fun and really educational without it feeling like it which as a kid was kind of important. The movie teaches you about how Halloween started and how it evolved into what is today.

This was much better than "50 Shades of Creepy-Ass Sexual Abuse."

The main character was actually someone who had had a life before the book started!

There were no inner goddesses krumping about in someone's noggin.

The only problem I had with it was given the title of the series, the ending was pretty obvious.

I really liked the plot but something about this book was a major let-down.

I like the moral question it raised, the dialing down of Creepy!Roarke, and Eve's friendship with Peabody and that's really it.

I know that this is supposed to be about three years from the first book but this one felt kinda stagnant.

Book Favorite

"I’m not over this book. It’s so twisty and turny and exciting and scary and creepy and addicting. I’m a fan of interesting or unusual structure; this book, with its dual (and often conflicting) narrators, makes such excellent use of our own expectations of standard structure to keep the reader on their toes. Gillian Flynn is brilliant."

Great remake!
This was such a great remake, you never know what you’re going to get when the first is as creepy as it was but this remake was pretty great. The small change they made really switched the whole thing up and made the possibility of what is going to come next for #2. Cast was great also.

Creepy
Really good watch, shows how a crush can become an obsession and how possessive and controlling relationships occur without the abused party realising. The story was gripping a intense a great watch with loads of twists, you were never really knew what was going to happen next

Eh
Another take on an old story. Pretty dark and creepy(in some gross ways). The acting was decent and the cinematography ok. The story unfolded ever so slowly, but kept the interest. Not for kids really but and interesting enough film if your bored some night after they've gone to bed. Kinda worth a watch.

FELT like the book
The cast was amazing
Details were there, but hinted at
I liked the movie as a whole. Not really "scary" more creepy. One thing though, this movie was much less like the book than the original movie... without any BIG spoilers...
Mild Book to Movie Spoilers:

Changes right off the bat include, obviously the time period, no fort building scene, Georgie's body wasn't found by the sewer, most of the ways the kids first meet IT, they don't say "beep beep Richie"... (aside from once)
There are much bigger changes I can't mention here.
SPOILER END...

All in all, I did really enjoy it! It definitely felt like the book. Better than the original in many ways. I'm looking forward to the second one!
