The Boy Who Cried Werewolf (2010)

so 667 movies and i have trouble deciding.. not because i have to many choices but because i didn't feel like watching any of them... finally got 2 out that looked interesting; John tucker must die and the boy who cried werewolf... as you can see i choose the later.

The boy who cried werewolf is a Nickelodeon production from 2010.. this basically means it was not released in theaters. Oh well don't blame the movie for that :P

so what is it about... well you have this family of three.. a dad and his daughter and son. The daughter Jordan want her dad to start dating again and the son Hunter is mainly against it. Hunter is also acting out by scaring people since he is overly happy about the super natural. Dad is not that big a fan of Hunters pranks though and thinks that since Hunter just turned 14 he should grow up and put all this spooky stuff on the shelf. One night Hunter finds a letter saying that the family inherited a castle in Romania. They go there and spooky things starts to happen...


so this was a fun little movie. It is a kids movie i could see myself showing my imaginary kids (or maybe just future ones) normally i don't like a lot of played kids movies (as opposite to animation) because i feel like they are being dumped down properly to make sure kids understand them. But i grew up with movies like Casper the friendly ghost and Addams family which wasn't dumped down and when talking about The Addams was in many ways pedagogically incorrect.. and i didn't get screwed up.. not much anyway.. to me this movie has a little of the same magic that Addams family still holds on me and i'm sure this is why i liked it so much..

oh and there is this wonderful thing about IMDb... my wanna list should be down to 666 (oh special number) but ehm it's not... its back up at 667 and with a movie on list i can't find.. oh well guess i just have a neverending wanna watch list :P
