Based as it is on the monstrously popular book series from the 1990s, it wouldn’t be surprising if Goosebumps the movie played best to a very specific demo -- the Millennials who so cherish the last decade of the last century and were raised on R.L. Stine’s spooky anthology tales as well as the TV show based on the same. But Sony’s Goosebumps, which stars Jack Black (as a fictional version of Stine) and was directed by Rob Letterman (Black’s, ahem, Gulliver's Travels helmer), does not require such generation-specific fandom in order to be enjoyed, and is in fact an all-inclusive monster romp that’s fun and spooky and just a little bit touching too. While a Goosebumps movie has been rumored since the ’90s, one can see the potential difficulties of adapting the books.
