The Scream Team

I think this was a great All Hallows Eve Movie. I originally turned it on because a friend of the family had a main role in it, but I absolutely LOVED the story line. I also loved seeing Kathy Najimy, Tommy Davidson and Eric Idle as the three main ghosts, they make an outstanding team!

The scariest part of the movie was probably at the beginning when Zachariah Kull is first introduced. This movie is all a round funny, but every time Zachariah comes on I get shivers even after seeing the movie a few times.

Kim Coates did an amazing job of keep you scared, and let me tell you he is anything but scary.

I definitely recommend this movie, but beware little children will get scared easily.

The following reviews are from my kids, Christopher (9), Kathleen (7) and Nora (4):

"You should watch Scream Team! I liked the four ghosts and all the characters and how they try to help each other. If it ever comes out on video you should get it. I thought it was funny." -Christopher

"It was a little scary, but I liked it! It was funny and I liked the end. There was a ghost who threw fireballs, his name was Zachariah. Scream Team was a good movie."

"It's really kind of scary and this guy throws fire. I liked it." -Nora

Okay, maybe I should worry about Nora and the fire thing. But the movie was very good, very well written and a cut above most tv fare. And I agree with Mary-Kate, having Melissa Hart's company behind it obviously helped propel it to a much higher standard. This movie quickly became a Halloween favorite with our family. Way to go, Disney, and the 'team' behinnd the 'scream'! Hopefully, the DVD is forthcoming...

My kids loved the movie, although I felt it moved a bit slow. If I put This movie and Halloweentown head to head, Halloweentown wins easily, but it is still worth watching during the Halloween season. No gore, no sex, so everyone can watch.

This is an excellent family movie it is well worth your time. Unless you are looking for lots of blood, guts, gore and scantily clad teeny boppers then you'll hate it. Kat Dennings is great as Claire, in spite of the hair and costume, and Mark Rendall is just as good as her brother Ian. Gather the kids pop the corn sit back and be entertained.

This movie is good for what it is- a kid's Halloween film. The child actors are acceptable and the adults seem to be having fun with their roles. As always, Eric Idle (Coffin Ed) is a joy to watch, and he gets all the good lines. The CGI isn't too impressive but the kids won't mind. It's not terribly scary but I wouldn't let the under six set watch by themselves. Fortunately, it's a movie that won't have adults tearing their hair out waiting for it to be over. Is it memorable? No, but it's a good ninety minutes of diversion. Grown-up fans of the adult actors might enjoy it more.
