Want an R-Rated Stranger Things? It Has You Covered

Bill (aka Henry): It's a boat
Narrator: Hey, that's the name of the movie

It

Director - Andres Muschietti
Writers - Chase Palmer, Cary Joji Fukunaga and Gary Dauberman
Starring - Jaeden Lieberher, Bill Skarsgard, Jeremy Ray Taylor, Sophia Lillis, Finn Wolfhard

It is Stranger Things with an R-rating told in movie form instead of Netflix series form. It features a ragtag group of children coming together to solve a supernatural problem in a very, very heavily 80s inspired story. Now, you may have loved Stranger Things and don't see this as a problem. But what if I told you that basically none of Stranger Things' strengths are present here. The kids are mostly wieners, there is no secondary adults story, there is a lack of depth to everything, and there's no cool score.
