I didn’t really grow up reading Fear Street, I was more a Goosebumps kinda girl, so I went into this without any expectations. And yet I was disappointed.

Look, I‘m not against cliches in horror movies, some of them are fun and mostly when played a bit tongue-cheek (hello Scream), but this film played all its dreadful cliches so straight it was unintentionally hilarious (when it wasn’t boring).

The story is convoluted and messy and tries way too many things at the same time (one can only hope the other parts make it make sense) and the characters are paper thin at best and highly unlikeable at worst. Especially the leads get the short end of the stick. Deena is just super annoying and unlikeable and Sam as boring as a brick. I mean I applaud the movie for making the main romance a lesbian couple without making a fuzz about it and treating it as normal as it is, but that doesn’t make characters likeable or a relationship interesting. Since the movie stupidly decided to start with them broken up and fighting for half of it, it’s hard to invest in their love and why Deena would sacrifice two more likeable characters to save Sam instead.

But I‘m ranting away. The movie is not even interesting enough for that. Let’s just hope the other parts deliver.
