Not too great, not too bad

Warning: Spoilers
Another day, another Halloween-friendly horror anthology, still made for kids but a little more adult in tone than something like GOOSEBUMPS. This in fact feels a lot like TRICK 'R' TREAT but is nowhere near on the level of that movie, and a lot of the time I felt like I was watching a deliberate STRANGER THINGS imitator. There are five stories collected here, and they're all entirely predictable, with youths or youngsters menaced by various CGI nasties. Killer spiders, scarecrows and madness are the order of the day, the highlight being the scenes in which the gang are harassed by a creepy contorted corpse monster which looks great. The rest is merely okay; I've seen a lot better and I've seen a lot worse, and this sits somewhere in the middle.
