"Monster Blood is spooky and the librarian turns into a monster and has four eyeballs. I watch it a lot." Isaac,age 6 really likes this movie!

GOOSEBUMPS: MONSTER BLOOD contains four episodes from the GOOSEBUMPS tv show.

"Monster Blood" - A boy named is Evan is sent to stay with his creepy great aunt Catherine for several days as his parents get their new house settled in Atlanta, Georgia. Catherine gives Evan a free reign of her house, except for one particular room. She warns him that he must never go into the room. Of course, before Evan's even settled into his own room he sneaks into the danger room. Evan after being caught, Evan later sneaks into the room with his new friend, Andy. Together they open up a glass jar labeled "Monster Blood" that contains a small amount of a goopy, green liquid. The Monster Blood starts growing at an exponential rate and begins devouring everything that it comes in contact.

"More Monster Blood" - This episode is actually the continuation of the previous episode. The Monster Blood has been contained and Evan is on a flight to reunite with his parents. However, a small amount of Monster Blood stowed away in Evan's suitcase and begins wreaking havoc on the plane. Instead of snakes on a plane, it's monster blood on a plane.

"How to Kill a Monster" - New step-siblings Gretchan and Clark are dropped off at Gretchan's grandparents in the middle of nowhere while their parents look for a new house in Atlanta. The kids spy Grandpa and Grandma sneaking around in a room upstairs and off course, they have to check it out, even after being told the room is off limits. Well, it turns out the room contains a horrible swamp monster that begins chasing the kids around once the grandparents have left to go into town. The ending is a nod of the head to WAR OF THE WORLDS as the kids defeat the creature in the most unlikely way. Of course, like most Goosebumps stories, there's another twist at the very end of the episode.

"The Girl Who Cried Monster" - This is one of the better known of the Goosebumps tv shows. It stays rather close to book. Lucy Dark is constantly tormenting her brother with monster stories. One night while at the library after hours, Lucy discovers that the librarian really is a monster. She tells her parents and her best friend, but no one will believe her. The librarian discovers Lucy knows his secret and begins hunting her for his next meal. Lucy is able to avoid his grasp, but then his parents invite him to dinner.

Of the four episodes on the DVD, "The Girl Who Cried Monster" is by far the best episode. "How to Kill a Monster" isn't as good, but it's not too bad, either. The "Monster Blood" episodes could have been rather frightening, but they go for the laughs instead of the scares (especially "More Monster Blood").

Unless you are a major Goosebumps fan, I'd recommend renting this DVD first to see if you like it enough to buy it.

I bought the Goosebumps DVDs' at the request of my 5-year old grandson. I have now watched them several times, each with him. I do believe he would watch these all day long if possible. Great fun.

This is a fun movie, it keeps with the suspense of all Goosebumps/ R L Stine movies.

It was very scratched and said it was guaranteed to play, well of the three movies I ordered, this one was terrible!
