Christopher Lloyd, Joe Pichler (2001) A 12-year-old boy moves to a Minnesota town where a curse prevents people from celebrating Halloween.
Not entirely sure why they're showing a distinctly Halloween focused movie in the middle of June, but that's neither here nor there. Apparently its based on an R.L. Stein book. And it shows...
In other news, an extension cord is distinctly not a fuse.
"Spooktaculariousness". I kinda like this guy. That's a pretty fancy word...
This kid is worse than Dakota Fanning... Only slightly less high-pitched... but he is a lot older...
The characters are all so very over-the-top... Sort of amusing, sort of annoying...
Well, all in all, don't watch it... Not worth it... A few moments of slight amusement, but on the whole, about 2 hours of relative boredom...
I did, however, spend the time learning about all the drama that's been going on with Formula 1. Apparently all the interesting teams (including Ferrari, McLaren, Red Bull, Brawn) have decided to leave Formula 1 and start their own series, in protest against the FIA (F1's governing body) imposing drastic mandatory cost-cutting measures without consulting the teams.
And the stereotypical German investor guy in this movie is really lumpy. Just FYI.

I would imagine that Christopher Lloyd was highly amusing for moments.
