4.0 out of 5 stars Just For Fun, September 9, 2000
By 
This review is from: Willies [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This movie is just plain fun. I saw it when I was about 13 years old, and I still remember all the stories. Its not going to scare you to death, its not going to win any awards, and it doesn't dazle you with special effects. What does it do? It will give you a fun ride while watching it, and you'll probably agree its a memorable flick.

So if you want a fun movie that has a "ghost stories in the backyard" type of plot, then I suggest you grab a copy of The Willies.

3.0 out of 5 stars The Willies, July 31, 2009

This review is from: The Willies with Bonus CD (DVD)
Before you had the classic Nickeloden show, Are You Afraid of The Dark, there was The Willies. The movie starts off with a few gross urban legends the woman who finds a rat in her fried chicken bucket and an exploding poodle. The main titles haven't hit yet and this movie looks promising. The first story was pretty good but the second story sucked. It was slow paced, boring, poor acting, and a story that really goes nowhere. The end to the film was a surprise but after seeing the second story, I was bored.

Overall, a decent film but nothing that i'd call a classic. They have two versions of this movie and one includes a scary sounds cd. They are the same price so you might as well get the bonus cd.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not Bad, April 20, 2004
By 
J. Archer (Fort Wayne,IN) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Willies [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This is a hidden gem. I saw this movie when i was a kid after reading a promotional comic book in the video store. I watched the movie and fell in love with it. It reminded me of when I used to tell creepy stories to my friends. Granted this movie will not win any awards it will be enjoyable to watche. It's a good movie to watch when you are feeling nostalgic. So just give it a chance.
