CineMassacre's Monster Madness #25 The Monster Squad (1987)

[Bannersnake]

I don't like the brutal werewolves I much perfer the ones that join the basketball team and play electric guitar

[BChanLuckyFox]

The phantom of the opera one remake doesn't count due to it mainly based on the musical. It's not really a horror movie, just following the main lines of the broadway musical.

[ihalloway]

one of best horror adventures of that time !!!

[filon810]

the movie reminds me of scooby doo

[holyssmonkwithoboz]

dracula is a mutha fuckin G

[zombiefan011]

@conrod15review haha but what about the Phantom of the Opera and Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde?

[zombiefan011]

How come the Invisible Man wasn't in this movie?

[conrod15reveiw]

@zombiefan011 he is u just cnt see him

[MrDavidX96]

2:40 made me think, why didnt james do one on the invisable man?

[bibipbi]

@MrDavidX96 he did in the 2009 version of top horror movies

[MrDavidX96]

@bibipbi i ment when he went over the classic ones in the begging of the first one, but yeah

[MafiaMan051]

Count Crotchula

[gorosaurus23]

Ok im bringing my nerd out but, Childs play was made in 1988, and Lepracon was made in the early 90s so they could not have made a mark yet.

[sirrvs]

Anyone know what movie that is at 0:30? I find that actress really cute for some reason.

[gigan997]

FUCK YEAH!!!!!

[AntChaotix]

Fuck! dracula is badass he called that little girl a bitch! he's right anyway...because little kids are bullshit!

[demonjack123]

@AntChaotix I laughed good sir.

[Petemejia77]

Best part in the movie is when the little girl befriends Frankenstein and tells the other kids as their freaking the fuck out "Come on guys, don't be such chicken shits!" Jesus was that funny!!

[TheSpartanK11]

If the Below mentioned were to happen, everyone in the world would die from Astonishment, even the actors. Oh, also... Maybe Jackie Chan... A Bruce Lee zombie... I dunno, who else.... George Clooney... I give up. The thought's just too great......

[TheSpartanK11]

Who else agree's there needs to be a movie with Dracula, the Wolfman, Frankenstein, Dr. Frankenstein, Creature from the Black Lagoon, Chucky, Jason, Freddy, the Mummy, Leatherface, Ghostface, Pinhead, Leprechaun, Godzilla, Every single one of Godzilla's enemies, King Kong, Jekyll and Hyde, Hunchback, Ash, Michael Myers... anyone i'm forgetting? The Blob... um... Phantom of the Opera... Van Helsing... I guess ... Maybe throw in Tom Hanks and Will Farrell... Megan Fox... Chuck Norris...

[KinisonisKing]

@twilightwindwaker Ya cause I mean a "Werewolf" putting himself back together isn't realistic. But the whole turning into wolf you're ok with?

[Farkas4444]

The Wolfman reminds me to the Terminator. I always scream, okay I only surprised and said: faszom (suck my d.ck), when it gets up again, again, and again (3 times i remember)

[nightbane2]

Even GODZILLA (1954) is getting a remake by... people from the UK?

Oh good not the US, US remakes are pretty dumb.

[XxusagibunnyxX]

Did you know that throughout the whole movie the actor who played Dracula had to go without his fangs and contacts because they scared the little girl? So for that scene where he picked her up and called her a bitch, they put them back in without telling her so they could get a real scream

[mst3KGf]

I love this movie for many reasons, one of which is its completely and utterly an 80s movie with all the 80s touches (right down to a "getting ready" montage complete with a cheesy rock anthem "Rock It Till You Drop!"...although what that has to do with a monster movie is beyond me).

I also like its cheerfull political incorrectness. The kids swear like real junior high kids and actually use guns and whatnot. And the fat kid is actually nicknamed "Fat Kid!"

[027220]

1:09 - :12 Nice part where Sean steps in to protect his sister.

[twilightwindwaker]

Wolf man's got nards! Of course he does since he has a human form. 1:55 BULLSHIT! That shouldn't happen since I have seen werewolves get killed by something other than silver. Anything could kill them if it did enough damage it's just that silver is more effective.

[ChrisMagoo99]

@twilightwindwaker movies aren't consistent with each other anyway

[CylonDorado]

Damn, I haven't seen that movie since I was a really little kid.

[xxxdmoney]

best movie ever ...nuff said

[TheRcanmeananything]

Eh I hate Hallow Man...

[Theriot6592]

I'd like to a monster madness of Van Helsing

[TheUndertakerii]

the wolf t the beggining of the video looks like bambi

[ultimatesharpzilla]

JASON V.S FREDDY V.S MYERS V.S LEATHERFACE V.S CHUCKY V.S LEPRACHAUN V.S PINHEAD V.S DRACULA V.S WOLFMAN V.S MUMMY V.S FRANKENSTEIN V.S GILLMAN V.S ZOMBIES V.S OTHER VAMPIRES!

[EpicPoptart854]

that beagle is cute ^^

[duleekrauser]

One of the movies that made my childhood.

[TheCrazyBrittish]

When i saw "Count Chocula" ceral i knew if they spelt it wrong every little kid in the world will say "Mommy, the new ceral is great, i love Count Crochula"!

[bloodcream13thstreet]

you should check out "Mad Monster Party" from 1967. it has Dracula, Dr. Frankenstein, Frankenstein's monster, Bride of Frankenstein, The Wolfman, Creature from the Black Lagoon, The Mummy, The Invisible Man, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, and King Kong (called "It" for some reason). EXTREMELY UNDERRATED

[AngryGodzillaBirds1]

@bloodcream13thstreet They should've included Godzilla.

[TeamPlasmaKingN]

@AngryGodzillaBirds1 Yeah, but if Godzilla was in the battle it's pretty obvious who would win, lol.

[fangsplus]

my family love movies like this so i lived on this bigman on campus and killer clowns from outer space the reason im so screwy hahahahaha

[beinghumangirl]

i remeber sitting with my friends on halloween and we watched this and we were laughing and at the same time we were like oh dam that not nice eww

[kobra867]

wtf a family film or a horror yelling you bitch a a little girl

[SuperMetalflame]

I used to watch this movie every single day and I do mean every day for like 2 years of my childhood. It got to the point where my dad swapped out a rental for the copy I owned because I warped the tape! every time I mention this movie nowadays it seems nobody understands wtf i'm talking about. I'm the Nerd gets it, fuck yea Nerd!

[Rubberman202]

My God... I remember watching this series for the first time... back in 2007... WHERE DO THE YEARS GO?!

[KordyNSB]

wow looks like a great movie .. gonna watch it

[fangsplus]

loved the movie would hate to see them destroy it by chucking too many special effects ,top list stars its classic leave it alone put it on tv more aswell

[WatchVenusSpa]

My NAME... is HORACE!!!!

[Godzie1]

Many "family" movies I watched w/my daughter growing up but have to admit Monster Squad has to be the best tribute to classic universal monsters ever made. We need movies like that to help educate today's kids of the great actor's & monster's of history!

[nightbane2]

Leprechaun was from the 1990s.

[spacemanisaac]

Black Lagoon remake? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

[Adamguy2003]

@ 0:23, I keep wondering what movie that clip's from, I see it a lot. (Channeling the Angry Video Game Nerd) It looks like it should be called "Attack of the Feces Monsters from Uranus."

Back on topic, this is a good movie; It's like if the Goonies had to fight the classic Universal monsters. I'll almost certainly be doing a screening of it some time over the next few weeks as part of my own Monster Madness marathon.

[lordsev666]

made on my birthday

[drewcox010101]

0:34 "yes!, SCORE!"

[XxComablackxX1937]

Creature from the Black Lagoon was awesome, my favorite movie as a kid next to the Godzilla franchise.

I hope the Reboot is good, i didn't even know we were getting that an for the love of god please not in 3D..

[srol2011]

only frankenstein is the good guy in this film

[NintendoPikmin123]

creature from the black lagoon looks badass

[krisb4real]

Leprechaun did not come out until 1993, its not an 80's film.

[kevin72013]

Next thing u know the kid will probably say Dracula's got a condom.

[albertwesker471]

my favorite movie as a kid

[PokemonTrainerBarry]

Hollow man was great.

[AlienRegalis]

0:42 put all those guys in 1 movie that would be awesome

[AlienRegalis]

wolfmans got nards lol

[foxhound900]

Dracula deserves a kick in the nards, you dont say that to a little girl.

[beblicious4you]

2:00 freddy krueger?

[metrostationhottieXD]

wolfman's got nards omg thats funny stuff.

[Dinozilla64]

where predator? he is horror

[MrWolfmanjack1]

YOU BITCH!

[simonimyours]

31 people didn't know that the Wolfman had nards.

[TheMidnightskies]

im not sure if id call the phantom of the opera a monster, i think hes just.. misunderstood...

[tobluetoblack]

then who r the monsters gonig to kill?

[MrSuperheromoviefan]

there's only one way to kill a monster

kill the fans

[sharktopus111]

whats the monster at 0:22-0:23

[SolidMike84]

@sharktopus111

That would be a Tingler from "The Tingler"

[SolidMike84]

@sharktopus111

I do not know what the monster after that is however

[ninjawraith17]

@SolidMike84

Close. That is one of the brain monsters from the 1958 "Fiend Without a Face."

[sharktopus111]

whats the monster at 22-23

[theAngryscotman]

I showed this to my wee sister today. she cryed when Frankenstein went away...and to be honest i got a little teary-eyed. lol

[1878Bernie]

Rudy FTW

[AntChaotix]

2:06 Dracula calls that little girl a bitch. There's a movie where Dracula calls a child a bitch. Win

[MrHerpderpson]

press 7

[ARSENALOFMEGADEATH]

how the fuck can you even compare the Lon Chaney phantom to the piece of shit Andrew Lloyd Webber gay fuck that's the Broadway play? blasphemy!

[flembagg966]

Don't fuck with the chuck

[027220]

2:07 I think it should've been 'brat.'

[Brandon999LFC]

The monster squad sounds like a band

[BloodyBart888]

Lol. Wolfman is like Wolverine. Grumpy, hairy bastards with claws and no mather what you use to destroy them, they just pick up their limbs and grow em back on. The only thing that can kill him is a magical weapon: a silver bullit or the Muramasa-blade(magical samurai-sword with a piece of Wolverine's soul that negates healing-factors)

[Boti951]

You Bitch! lol

[LostTapesImpressiveT]

elvis pwns all except godzilla

[gerryf964]

Im 10 And I Appreceate These Movies

[Crashgamer100]

Damn they sould have called Simon Belmot!!!

[ROFLman0698]

That movie was fucking badass

[evilbunnyisyourruler]

heh heh Burger King in a monstre movie, nice

[CultureClasher]

Monster Squad is one of my all-time favorite movies, I grew up with this movie. It also inspired me to write a "Monster Squad-type" movie featuring The Tall Man, Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees, Michael Myers, and Chucky ( I have seen the faux trailer called The Monster Squad 2 and aware of its plot).

[SardaukarPrime]

The Nerd hasn't mentioned any Stephen King or Clive Barker-based movie.

[jheadSF06]

@SardaukarPrime Actually he did a review of the Shining once as well as a Monster Madness episode on Hellraiser.

[Mysterious0Bob]

@SardaukarPrime This isn't the fucking AVGN. The nerd is a character. This is James Rolfe.

[abofist89]

I have a funny filmidea!!! THe old monsters(dracula,frankenstein and co) versus the new monsters (jason,freddy and the other guys)! this would become a horrorwar!!! XD

[SolidMike84]

@abofist89

How about the old monsters vs Twilight

Hey, we all know how it would end but wouldn't it be awesome to see still?

[kungfoolkyle1998]

leatherface was a true story most people dont no that

[LavenderTownRose]

@kungfoolkyle1998 Leatherface is a character, he was based off of Ed Gein who only killed two people. He was a grave robber, not a serial killer. Leatherface's house and "furniture" and such was inspired by Gein, who lived in Wisconsin, not Texas.

[brunoafh123]

Man, I saw this when I was a kid and it still comes into my head every so often. The thing is, I had no idea what the movie was called for the longest time. Now I finally know, and can watch it again sometime.

[sillygrl23]

@brunoafh123 I know what you mean I saw only about the second act of the movie one day while I went over to a friend's house to play, he was the one that introduced me to the name of all the movie monsters. And now being older every chance I get I try to find the DVD in the video stores so I can rent it and watch the full movie again.

[minhmook]

PANKAKES

[minhmook]

count shitula xD

[xDanielx2016]

yeah its a family movie until somebody is called a "bitch" to a little girl lol.

[Anonymousnonexistent]

1.05 Look, a dick!

[theguyyouate6]

@Anonymousnonexistent Your a dumb fuck

[rws531]

They should make a michael jackson monster

[MrJackThompson]

this looks awesome. they should add Candyman and Pinhead if there's a sequel.

[ishouldplayzelda]

"wolfman's got nards..."

[insomniac011101]

Just watched this movie on Blu Ray! And it was pretty damn good! I gotta say one thing though: I wish i saw this when i was a kid, cos then i wouldve downright loved it! xD

[ironhidewatson]

i watched this when i was like 10 and i loved it hey im 16 now but this film was beast

[Rleeson85]

i liked the puppet master movies too.

[a45027]

Well, i guess this movie gave vampires the solution for defeating werewolves. Hitting them in the nards lol!

[Tboysupreme]

damn movie used to scare the crap out of me as a kid!

[twilightwindwaker]

Actually stabbing or clubbing him with silver would also work. Cutting off his head should kill it since it happened in the remake of the Wolfman.

[GiantTurtleWave]

Burger king

[clashrogers]

Thumbs up if you think this should be shown on every Halloween.

[TheScandinavianOne]

Freddy Kruger spotted at 2:01!

[Lufttygger306]

Dracula FTW

[freddy3911]

@Lufttygger306 Especially the Dracula who in this movie. He is the best!

[TOshow1]

Lol my middle name is micheal and my last name is meyers

[Leatherbubba]

One of the most underappreciated cult movies I can think of.

[jamesnintendofan]

Platinum Dunes said that they might remake Monster Squad and since they already remade Texas Chainsaw Massacre Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street maybe it will star the slasher villains instead of the classic movie monsters almost like a modern day sequel instead of remaking it with the classic movie monster again.

[dassupernazi]

u gotta luv the monster squad

[SuperSonichero10]

I saw the movie recently... It Was AWESOME!!!! =)

[ScaryReviews]

I think you got me convinced that I should check this out. It really looks like a lot of fun, and it's always fun to see a monster mash. The only monster mash I saw in color was Van Helsing and that too was a fun movie to watch.

[CDenic]

The classic monsters never die...but original and creative movie making sure as hell did.

[bheemabachus]

Now if only we could have Frankenstein vs. Jason the horror cycle would be complete.

Naw, I'm just kidding, horror will go on forever (or until the apocalypse.)

[Raptorboy101]

I saw this movie in Target, WHY DID I CHOOSE THE ORIGINAL TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE OVER THIS???

[MarcoDiCesar]

the creature from the black lagoon reminds of the kraken because they both look simalir

[Crust218]

Definitely one of my favorite movies as a kid. It was on HBO constantly in the 80s. Nothing beats the werewolf transformation in this film. Kick ass 80s classic.

[AngelSilasTV]

Actually now the wolf has been remade twice

[diddymuck]

outstanding movie! Sequel...all the 80's creeps Jason, Freddy, Pinhead, Pumpkinhead, etc vs Ash, Harry (the bigfoot), the Golum (via Scary German Guy's magic), Sammi Carr (he helps kids, they're his fans), and the Leprechaun...he's good to the Irish.

[theblacktippingpoint]

idk about everyone but i have never heard of "wolfman's got nards" till i watched this review

[wataki2]

Never heard of this movie.

[MrKiikunkaakun]

2:47 that cereal appears in The Simpsons The Old man and the Lisa where burns tries to find his face on a cereal box since Krusty has his face on a cereal box and he says to the box

- well i suppose this looks a little bit like me

(BTW if ur wonderin' why his shoppin', he lost the plant)

[clashrogers]

This should be shown on Halloween more often.

[thedesklauncher]

what about john carpenters the thing??

[rmbranham]

Wolfman has nard 0.0

[twilightwindwaker]

@rmbranham Why would that be surprising? Most male mammals should have them.

[GoldenBulletStudio]

the lepercon movie scared me for life! i saw it when i was probly like 8 and i never forgot the nightmares i had...

[Migzter05]

kinda reminds me of the goonies.. only with monsters in it:P

[blackhawks2009]

Who would win?

Classic monsters (Dracula, wearwolf)

Or the more newer ones? (jason, Freddy)

They would be 2 teams, the new and then the old.

[Demolitiondude]

A Hunter starter.

[yellowcougar18]

Loved Monster Squad. Apparently they had to change the look of the monsters in the film or else face a lawsuit from Universal.  The late Stan Winson did the makeup for the film, and he talks about it in his book. A really fun movie. Btw, as also mentioned in the book, the werewolf is based on Stan Winston's face. He actually enjoyed the reference to himself. Gotta say tho that I disliked Van Helsing. Gonna see if I can find this film on Rapidshare sometime.

[Smack23Raw23ECW23]

what is Pinhead doing in the films

[1000rave]

lol you bitch!!!!

[r3ini]

1:01

Gill-man going to Burger King!

[lucypunch]

this is a comedy!

"Wolfman's got nards!" dumbest fucking line. Even back then I thought it wasn't funny.

[balrog13571]

Dracula swearing and punching people alone makes this movies awesome xD. It's really sad that it didn't get alot of success at the time. I mean yes there are some plot holes and the Mummy and Gill-Man were underused, but the make-up and effects were awesome and it left you with a happy feeling. Van Helsing disappoints me though. It seems to value effects before story and there's waay to much CGI and the fights are real blurry. It's not terrible, but not really memorable as the original classics.

[cnlo2002]

i remember the ending of this movie with frankenstine

[CyberRiot5]

i cant belive dracula would say You B*tch

[alienvspredator444]

Wolfman GOT NARDS, BUT THE MUMMY DONT GOT NARDS

[fishjohnburg]

Cause they turned into dust as he dacyed.

[AFROJASON666]

im gonna do that to my lil sister. dress up like dracula and call her a bitch

[jagarcia0705]

Wolfman got nards!

[loschain]

wolfmans' got nards

[ScorpionFan9908]

lol wolfmans got nards

[DNAce1]

I would like to see the creature from the black lagoon remake that has a good budget not those cheap ones like the hillbilly one. That is stupid.

[hidan12341]

that movies awsom

[abtazz12]

Somebody should make a movie about a monster bash between:

Jason

Freddy

Pinhead

Chucky

Michael Mayers

Leatherface

Leprechaun

[Klookko]

man that would be one gory movie..

also add Bruce Campbell as Ash

[megasupermatt]

Yes, but no pinhed, that would be crap, we don't want to see anyone messing with that little box, if they didn't use the box then that would beok

[Rubberman202]

@abtazz12 Supposedly, there WAS one, which James Rolfe saw a preview of, and he said it sucked.

[hidan12341]

@abtazz12 that would b awsom

[Orcideah]

@abtazz12 and Victor Crowley(Hatchet-Face) : D

[THESUPERCAT64]

@abtazz12 That would be my dream movie. Maybe through Godzilla and SpiderMan in the mix.

[poesidon2323]

@abtazz12 and chuck norris

[clashrogers]

@abtazz12 and the ones who can stop them are fans in their teens and twenties who know ever single detail of each franchise.

[GiggittyGiggittyGuu]

@abtazz12 whos pinhead?

[GeminiBreaker]

@GiggittyGiggittyGuu He's from the Hellowraiser movies. I highly recommend that you see the first two.

[KillaCutes]

@abtazz12 and Jeepers Creepers

[KillaCutes]

@abtazz12 and Jeepers Creepers
