Ok :)

I love how Nebbercracker never appeared in any marketing, so the immediate early assumption was, "Oh, this guy dies and possesses his house", but then the reveals evolve it into a great balance of morbid and heartwarming. Watching as a kid raised on Scooby-Doo, I never imagined the movie would be so layered.

That’s because it originally was meant to be like that, it even had swearing & that’s why there’s a lot of subtle sexual jokes in the movie, the scene where Jenny finds the pee bottles in the bedroom chowder originally said “DJ…you piss in bottles?” And they changed it to pee in bottles, if you look chowders lips he still says Piss with his lips.

Actually, now that I think about it. It does make some amount of sense on paper since doesn't Nyquil have something in it to make you sleepy, which is why Dayquil is a thing for when you just started your day? The protagonists, seeing as they are kids and need it in bulk, most likely can't get "professional" sleeping pills / tablets, so they made do with what they *could* get their hands on. Especially since Chowder's father already has a pharmacy with Nyquil out on the shelves.

I really don't think the animation and visuals are all that bad, I find it incredibly charming too. Also I miss when kids movies were scarier lol I couldn't put this movie down as a kid. Family-friendly horror just isn't a thing anymore :/

This and Coraline gave me so many nghtmares as a kid, but I would just firm it and rewatch them anyway. And then as an adult when they stopped being scary, they just became really good and nostalgic kid's movies that hold up well.

Everything about this is stellar. The story is a combo of things we’ve seen before, but put together in a sensible way that maximizes both the humor and the horror. The acting, the visuals, everyone just did a really good job.

Monster House is so much of a product of its time that its charming.

I feel like _Monster House_ does a great job in exploring themes of loss, grief, and both holding & moving on from the past really well, particularly with Constance and Horace Nebbercracker’s relationship. I feel like behind all of Constance’s vengeful persona is a (literal) soul consumed with despair and a desire for acceptance-something clearly conveyed when those kids egged the house the night she died. Maybe it’s weird that I’m analyzing the themes of a kids movie, & I doubt anyone’s see this, but those are just my thoughts on it ig.

What you’re referring to is “healing your inner child.” I feel like how you described constantly. I feel like a child still at 22 & cannot let go of these things that made me who I am. I look back & see where I got my personality from these movies & shows. You have to remember, ADULTS, made these things. By god if they’re allowed that childhood wonder then so are you. You just have to adapt & find out who it is that your child self saw you becoming without losing the things that made you, you. It hits more with the weather change for me.

forever thankful my dad bought the bootleg DVD of this from some random dude in the grocery store parking lot 🙏

This was a very good review and I wish you well Nick! Also at the end of the movie the same two cops that got eaten were actually alive and unharmed but just had a quick memory wipe from the events after encountering the Monster House. So not only that Nebelcrakcer was free from grief and fear but also everyone else had bee free from the prison the house made too!

I have one sentence for this. This was the scariest movie I had ever seen from my childhood, it gave me nightmares and it made me extremely afraid of houses with no lights on in the night.

This movie is honestly great. I loved it as a kid and find it surprising more people don't know it. I used it for a film study for a Year 9 class during our horror unit and the kids loved it. Definitely timeless.

The monster house makes me feel so icky. Like imagine you've finished a hard day at work but when you go home you remember its a monster house. Literal chills...

If you think that's icky? In the original unused script, the internals of the house was actually flesh and bone.

This movie is so important to me. The year it came out i was about 7 and my school took our whole grade to the theatres for our school trip and let me tell you, seeing this movie on the big screen as a kid who loved horror and hearing your classmates screamin was nothing short of a spiritual awakening

I remember watching this as a kid and not being able to sleep as there was an old abandoned house next door. Good memories

Nick you talking about movies you’re passionate about, whether it’s old or new it’s like getting amazing life advice contained in a video with a big bow. Thank you for making these videos man!

I remember being horrified for days after seeing this movie. My little 9 year old mind thought my house was alive and scary like the one in the movie. Still, despite some flaws this movie really is great and underappreciated (given by the little awesome details and symbolisms shown in this video about the movie). One of the best animated movie I've seen and not simply because of nostalgia.

To this day monster house is still my favourite animated movie of all time, every time I watch it I notice something new or realise that someone in the cast is someone from something else & it’s also the directorial debut and is written by Dan Harmon the co creator of Rick & morty which I only found out when I recently rewatched the movie. I also love looking at the new reviews for this movie, it’s all parents who don’t want their kids watching anything slightly scary/challenging or even loud. All the reviews are of parents saying it’s too scary for their kids & the loud noises would scare them etc when it came out when i was a kid it’s all anyone could talk about on the playground for a week. Edit: I also saw for the first time yesterday a post credit scene which I never knew existed of Bones being rejected by Zee and hooks up with Skull instead. Which is fucked up considering they’re band mates in skull and bones lol.

whoa i was never expecting to get such a deep philosophical conclusion from monster house. hell that movie is great!! i remember all the kids around me talking about how scary that movie was and how they were so afraid of it, and it made me really happy to know someone made a scary movie that was appropriate for kids and it wasn't just a silly story (even though it has its very silly moments)

1. When I was a kid this was the scariest movie ever. Honestly, I loved it. Made me cry then, still does now lol. But looking back on it now, it's amazing. The story telling, foreshadowing, the voice acting and the cinematography is really something special. If it wasn't a motion capture movie, it would've been a perfect movie. 2. Rewatching it, I feel as though Zee (the goth girl) was going to play a bigger role. She's set up with an interesting personality, but with no pay off. I feel like she would've gotten loured there, like Bones, but at the last second got away. Feels like a wasted opportunity.

So much nostalgia omg! I grew up watching Monster House every Halloween ever since I was 9 years old! Thank you 24FramesofNick, this movie deserves all the love it can get!

I appreciate the nuanced takes about this film that id never notice. The phrase "Kill your darlings" as it means to remove the things you love for the sake of a better story feels important here. It isnt why moving on is important- I think many movies/cartoons do that already. Its almost a literal take on what moving can look like and how brutal and freeing it can be.

tbh monster house and coraline f*ckd me up so much when I watched them as a kid (which was also why I rewatched both like 100 times) I still shudder when remembering them, so it's really nice to see someone give this movie the praise it deserves❤

that last part hit hard

Chowder is the most underrated comic relief. He's hilarious unintentionally

while i thought the animation was kinda rough as a kid, now i think it looks really great. its perfect for the story, if it looked different i dont think the movie would work as well. its a problem you often see with horror anime, sometimes the cute character designs actually make it less scary. i love the art direction of monster house

This movie will forever have a special place in my heart. I waited for it to come on CN every halloween as a kid.

one of my favorites as a kid, its what got me into enjoying scary stuff when it came out i was like 4 or 5, one of my earliest movie theater trips i remember

I know people hated how it looked but monster house was truly ahead of its time

This movie played a big part in my childhood trauma. It haunted my nightmares. The house and the way that it was animated terrified me. The concept of an entire house having a consciousness and behaving like a living being, being able show signs of life by moving parts of itself while the rest of it remains inanimate or revealing itself to be alive and fully conscious by animating its entire “body” like a living creature, and the inside of the house functioning like the inside of a living being is extremely uncanny and nightmare fuel. This is my personal understanding of why people would be terrified of the concept of inanimate objects such as mannequins, dolls, and animatronics coming to life and having a mind of their own. For me, it’s being terrified at the thought of an entire house coming to life.

Literally my childhood, such a good film when I was young I used to get so excited when it premiered on Cartoon Network at the evenings for October

i saw this movie in theaters when i was 7 and i was DEFINITELY not a fan of horror back then. i can’t even explain how much it terrified me lmao. my neighborhood had a house covered in vines and this movie made me SO scared of it lol

This is one of my favorite movies of all time because it shows its subtle with its messages but also has a good balance of horror and comedy. Also the advice at the end was really needed fr fr!!

I remember being so shocked in 9th grade when i found out who voiced the cops in this movie🤣

The mocap animated people in this movie may technically be dated, but I still think the animation for the monster house herself is phenomenal and holds up to this day.

i’ve been a proud monster house fan since i was really little. i quote it all the time

me when the video that was just uploaded gets re-uploaded and I proceed to watch it again

I loved the animation style since it gives kind of a mix of still noticeable 3rd animation, but has almost a texture of clay. Like stop motion movies (I.e. Coraline and others alike). And I haven’t seen a movie like this, it feels completely it’s own and unique.

While the models don't look great these days... I *really* love the animation of this movie. It evokes stop motion in alot of scenes.

“Your honor… Chowder will never be ballin!” “OBJECTION!!! CHOWDER FUCKIN BALLIN!!!”

Honestly think this is one of the most underrated animated films of all time. Don't know how it wasn't a huge success.

We need more kids horror movies, coraline is still one of my all time favourites

This "kid's film" was scary and more anxiety inducing than most horror films. From Nebbercracker, being a creepy old scary man, from the house eating people at night, Constance' cemented corpse cracking and revealing her skeleton in the bottom of the basement, there's so much scenes that are just damn terrifying.

I was bawling my eyes out when Mr. Nebercracker was trying to calm his wife down while she was in her rampaging state

‘Ohhh it’s a girl house’ is still one of my favourite dumb jokes in a movie

it has such a special place in my heart, i used to watch it all the time as kid

I remember my cousin constantly talking about how Monster House was soooo scary... meanwhile, my sister and I just laughed at the fact that the house was alive and how the animation looked silly goofy. Also Nick, you should review the movie Jack and the Cuck-coo Clock Heart. That was my shit and I always love rewatching it. I'd love to see your take on it!

Dude, seeing this after the goodbye video floored me. It took three hours to watch because I can't keep myself from crying. Seriously man, I'm glad you are taking a break, growing up and letting go, while still doing the things you love. You deserve to be happy dude.

I used to watch this with my younger siblings (+ cousin) ALL the time!! Like every time we visited my cousin, we put Monster House on. My cousin wasn't allowed to watch horror movies, while my siblings and I loved them. So it was like something we could all compromise on, but still be creepy (at least as kids lol)

I watched this movie every Halloween for years, I adore this movie.

The shadowy hand in a blood red room scared me shitless as a kid, good stuff

I watched this movie at a drive-in theater somewhat recently. I recommend drive-in theaters. It's fun watching a movie while sitting in a comfy lawn chair and eating some funnel cake.

My child brain thought everyone the house ate was permanently gone. I watched it again as an adult & theres an after credits scene of bones & the cops climbing out of the basement of the house. Good way to get away with making a kid think they saw someone die on screen but no they're alive in the end

I will proudly say that this movie scared the heck out of me when I was a kid and for that reason it was my favorite childhood scary movie.

Ooh! It's great to see you cover this film again on your channel.

The Idea of a PG Rated horror movie is genius, i remember watching this as a kid, the suspense and Dark theme mixed with the slapstick like comedy made it a unique experience.

Man, this movie terrified me as a kid and honestly; at 21 years old I still won’t watch this movie alone smh😂

just watched this again and it was way funnier when you watched it as an adult, the adult humor here is sooo funny like when they're on the house and they talk about the uvula. that scene was hilarious af. Underrated gem indeed

this was one of my fav movies as a kid,,, do glad to see it’d remembered :)

Monster House is easily one of my favorite fall/Halloween movies

Nick talks about this movie like hes a titanic survivor

Monster house is THAT movie. I literally brought it to our Halloween party in 2nd grade for us to watch and right into it during the scene with bones and Jenny she immediately said something correlating to it “may not being appropriate enough” for us to watch or something but yea that made me sad the entire day ngl. I’ve watched this movie like repeatedly and every time it’s the best experience my gosh I love this movie, especially when I was younger.

I introduced monster house to my primary school and they thank me to this day for introducing it

Loved this video nick ❤❤❤

This movie absolutely has to be inspired by Stephen Kings books, and nothing will change my mind. A trio of kids who have to fight an inanimate object thats been possessed and tries to each children. A grouchy old man who acts as an antagonist whos actually not a bad guy. Set in the 80s. Main protagonist thinks hes more mature than he actually is. All of the adults dont believe the kids. There's even an older bully character who winds up getting "killed" by the monster

This and 9 were beautiful films made at a time were the animation was enhanced by its limitations

It's so easy to tell that Nick is a fan of It's Such a Beautiful Day just by listening to that intro. We share a unique bond.

Monster House is a staple Halloween movie in my household, like Scary Godmother. Me and my brother would watch it every year. He moved out last month, so this Halloween will be the first I watch it without him.

It's gotta be one of my favorites childhood scary movies, up there with Corpse Bride and Coraline. The kind of movie that just sticks with you as a fond memory. When I was a kid, just bored and watching Cartoon Network, this movie would actually come up quite often, I must have watched it 3 or 4 times. Never got tired of it honestly, it's themes, it's ambience, the atmosphere. It's all just, good.

My son watches this on repeat all year long … Today we are on re-watch number three … I have analyzed and dissected every frame to my audience of folded laundry piles … Justice for Constance Nebercracker ❤ Legit just found a “monster house” looking Halloween decoration and it is on the way from DoorDash, hoping it gets here before the movies over … They’re in the basement now … THIS MOVIE SLAPPPSSSSSS so hard … got them kids singing Siouxie Sioux

This why I love this channel

Love the choice of using Silent Hill 2's music for your narration. A man of taste as always.

Monster house, I think, is the first, and I know the last indie movie that was treated like an S tier blockbuster film, from the storytelling, music, and animation which I definitely believe it holds up, of course it's nothing like Disney and Pixar animation that have thousands of godly talented animators. But it's legitimately crazy how the smallest of things in this movie all contribute to the film on a bigger level. And of course, that isn't to say the movie doesn't have its faults, like its biggest one: no one lives in the neighborhood! I basically grew up watching this movie. This basically is what got me into horror, and more or less inspired me into being a writer and being into film and movies. And years later, coming back and revisiting films thanks to its minor spotlight with reacters, realizing two things that makes this movie great. How well the little things in this movie contribute to the bigger picture, like the music, the music fits so well with some scenes. And second how this film master a small level of macabre horror, there's a certain level of horror on how life like the house is, and how the house has so many human characteristics

I remember not only watching this movie god knows how many times but also playing the video game multiple times on my 3DS I think and now that I watched this video, makes me realize just how dark this was for a kids movie

Finally some praise for this above and beyond horror film that was and is a banger movie.

Man, I remember watching this movie on repeat man. I wish I still had the TV

I still watch this movie every October with my Grandma. One of my favorite movies of all time.

I've seen many videos trashing on this movie, but I always loved it, even to this day, it's so good to see someone do this movie justice! I generally liked the little details of this movie, something even I didn't notice at first. Good job really liked this video!
