Pretty fuckin awesome.
So thats us 80's kids in a nut shell huh? It felt insanely familiar on so many levels. But not in a bad way, am I right?
You know how some times you want Tarantino's stuff and you think, wait thats a straight rip from that old kung Fu movie and some how it doesn't feel right, it feels dirty.
This wasn't that, it felt like a true continuation of all those great sic-fi horror flicks we saw as kids. Specially the ones that were intriguing but kinda freaked me the hell out, like:
The Gate and Deadly Friend.
One personal favorite thing about movies when I was a kid were the toys and gadgets featured in movies! Like in ET when he's playing with the Star Wars toys, I loved those toys and back then it wasn't like it is now where you can go online and look up rare toys, so when you saw them it was like: oh shit thats yoda!!!
Also, I like how in this story can run with most ideas without being bogged down with dick-head comments like "oh bullshit that can't happen!" The story is out there enough that they can do whatever they want and the movie is just enjoyable.
