    Pretty impressive cast lined up for this. Doug Jones presumably reprising his role as Billy Butcherson. Sam Richardson is fun in I Think You Should Leave on Netflix and also in Werewolves within.

    Watched the original again last night and it really does hold up for what it is which is a kids movie. I hope the sequel doesn't try to overly complicate things and keeps it short, the original is a tight 90 minutes.

    Won't watch the trailer since only a few weeks to wait.

    Though trying to decide whether to watch at release or wait until Halloween.

    I am hyped for this, love the original

    Looking forward to seeing this movie. Will probably wait til the first or second week in October, as will re-watch the first one beforehand with the kids.

    Dropped in Disney+ this morning.

    Watched it tonight and enjoyed it. I was kind of worried it would be a big disappointment as I loved the original as a little girl but thankfully that wasn't the case.

    I watched it last night, I did enjoy it. Nearly 30 years since the original I thought it would be a let down but very enjoyable with a few laughs. I watched the original nearly every Halloween as a child so maybe the nostalgia factor had a bit to play in my enjoyment of it. Was kind of hoping for a Ice and Jay cameo

    I enjoyed it. Take away the sentimental value of the first film and it's an ok film, an above average TV movie. This film is probably on a par with that but I'm obviously a lot older watching it for the first time.

    Have to say I enjoyed it. Better than what you'd expect a 29 year old movie sequel to be.

    I enjoyed it.

    There were parts that felt very contractual orientated with Sarah and Mary seemingly getting more lines.

    Even Billy getting a bigger role. Could also be to do with popularity.

    Was a bit disappointed we didn't get a cameo from at least one of the three of the first film.

    Or even get ghost Binks in from NCIS.😃

    Billy having a bigger role might be down to the fact that Doug Jones is now a much bigger name with his role on Star Trek Discovery.
