Good to see this after a long delay for it's release, think I saw a trailer late summer last year. Wasn't sure what to expect, looked a lil low budget more of an indie thriller.
Well it definitely exceeded expectations. Set in 1978 the whole look and feel of the film is great. It visually looks like it was made around that time with a strong retro vibe to it. Story wise it felt like a Stephen King adaptation. There is a strong element to the likes of Stand by me or even Stranger Things in terms of growing up and friendship while over coming a difficult time. Along with a supernatural twist and ideas from the genre, it has a great combination which together make it a really enjoyable watch. Check it out if you are a Stephen King fan especially.

OK but over rated
Reminds of Steven King films from the 80s. Tension, atmosphere and retro feel abounds but is badly let down by pacing of the story. Encompasses that era really well with nice touches but the story of the first series could and should have been a film instead of being stretched out, there's just not enough plot to go around.
