Something Wicked This Way Comes

Meh. Good for a throwback of nostalgia if you’re into it but I got bored and zoned out.

Something Wicked This Way Comes was honestly terrible. 😂 The sound was awful, the acting was poor and I really struggled with the story. We kept looking at each other throughout the film in complete disbelief because it just wasn’t working for either of us.

The one thing I will give it is Jonathan Pryce. He completely carried the film and was by far the strongest part of it. Unfortunately, even his performance couldn’t save the rest of the movie for me.

Definitely not one I’ll be watching again. 😭

It’s a nostalgic autumn Halloween movie. It definitely is a horror movie and while it may not scare modern audiences, it’s fantastic in the 1980s. The creepy carnival, the storm, the Mr dark—it’s all nostalgicly scary. The story is simple and a bit predictable but that’s what you get with a kids movie.
