Audiences of a certain age were likely super nostalgic when it was announced that R. L. Stine’s “Goosebumps” series of YA horror books were going to be adapted for a feature film. 2015’s “Goosebumps” actually gained gold stars across the board, with both fans and critics appreciating how the film treated the source material with respect, while also existing as its own thing. The key aspect to this film’s success is its sense of humor, which “Goosebumps” uses to diffuse the more frightening moments with snippets of levity. This enables young kids to feel brave watching what may or may not be their first “scary movie.”
