More 96-98 than 94
20 June 2022
The worst thing by a mile is how unlikeable Deena is, not the actress, she's fine, it's the character.

The second worst thing is how much they messed up the soundtrack, having a song inserted unnecessarily is actually very period appropriate but a few of the songs were actually released after 95 so as someone who was a kid, tween and teen for the entirety of the 90s it ticked me off They also made some of it too 80s.

Things that were good, the acting was better than most 90s horror and the story was good as a 90s rip off with a sort of disney Hocus Pocus vibe at times.

The movie just smacks of unfulfilled potential, they had a great opening, a good Fear Street story, decent actors and when they went full ahead with the horror, Ruby Lane especially, it worked but the weak aspects were so weak that the combination of that and how horrid Deena was almost made me give up.
