Exclusive Video Interview: Dylan Minnette, Odeya Rush And Ryan Lee Talk Goosebumps

For many kids, Goosebumps was a major part of their cultural upbringing. They could read R.L. Stine's novels, watch the adapted television show, and hang out with the sorta-kinda-maybe horrific creatures in their dreams/nightmares. Stine helped many children fall in love with books, and those are the people who are probably most jealous of teen actors Dylan Minnette, Odeya Rush and Ryan Lee - the stars of this year's Goosebumps movie.

Crimson Peak Review

Crimson Peak is gorgeous, there's no denying that fact, but del Toro's Gothic facade hides a hollow, unbalanced foundation that begins to crumble under such immense visual weight.

Bridge Of Spies Review

Bridge Of Spies is a historical retelling flavored like murky potato stew, but it's still a Spielberg production, and for that, we leave enlightened by the Hollywoodized wonders of wartime espionage.

Exclusive Video Interview: Rob Letterman Talks Monsters, Amblin And Goosebumps

In a time where family-friendly horror films have found themselves ignored for studio tent-pole movies, Goosebumps aims to buck that unfortunate trend. With the help of R.L. Stine's creative juices, director Rob Letterman hopes that his spooky children's adaptation will capture the attention of a generation's worth of young horror fans, while also servicing Stine's popular source material. Goosebumps books have been keeping children pleasantly chilled for years now, and while the film puts a larger focus on comedy over scares, there's still enough thrills to give audiences a taste of Stine's jovial darkness. It's accessible, respectful, and full of laughs - everything that we've been missing from this once-popular subgenre.

I Spit On Your Grave 3: Vengeance Is Mine Review

I Spit On Your Grave 3: Vengeance Is Mine does nothing to pull this series from the bowels of cinematic repugnance - it's still a man-hating franchise built on rape.

Tales Of Halloween Review

Every short may not be a winner (like all anthology films), but Tales Of Halloween is a unique little indie treat worth a light-hearted holiday watch this October.

Knock Knock Review

Knock Knock is a midnight movie that never comes to fruition, wasting a stellar concept and cast on forced B-movie antics that are far too unfunny for Roth's talents.
