I highly recommend this film if you haven't seen it yet, I actually really enjoyed it. While it takes place on Halloween 1968, it was released in 2019 and is directed by André Øvredal (The Autopsy of Jane Doe), based on the children's book series of the same name by Alvin Schwartz. The screenplay was adapted by Dan and Kevin Hageman (The Lego Movie), from a screen story by producer Guillermo del Toro (Pan’s Labyrinth), as well as Patrick Melton (The Collection) and Marcus Dunstan (The Collector). The film, an international co-production of the United States and Canada, stars Zoe Colletti (Fear the Walking Dead), Michael Garza (Wayward Pines), Gabriel Rush (The Grand Budapest Hotel), Austin Zajur (Fist Fight), Natalie Ganzhorn (The Set Up), Austin Abrams (Dash & Lily), Dean Norris (Breaking Bad), Gil Bellows (The Shawshank Redemption), and Lorraine Toussaint (Selma). It is available on Showtime, they allow a free trial. There is a sequel coming out in the future.
