Writter by Fred Dekker and Shane Black (who collaborated once again on the upcoming Predator flick) and directed by the former, this rarely seen horror parody from 1987 brings together all the Universal monsters for a likeable romp.

Count Dracula pitches up in America and summons the Wolfman, The Mummy, Frankenstein’s Monster and the Creature from the Black Lagoon to enact an evil plan. Only a bunch of schoolkids armed with home-made weapons can stop them.
