“Monster House” is a roller coaster ride of a movie with a possessed house starring as the main character. There are many scary scenes in the film as our heroes try to stop the house from eating its victims (later we learn everyone is OK). I was surprised to see so many young children in the theater and equally as astounded that they were extremely quiet (no screams or tears). However, Dove does not recommend that young children be brought to this show as the content and humor is geared toward older pre-teens.

There is some good moral content such as friends sticking together to help one another, and not judging people based on assumptions. All in all, this was a creepy and somewhat funny film.
