Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark
Sometimes you are about to watch a movie when you suddenly realize it is based on a book. Sometimes you choose to care.
A collection of short horror stories to scare you senseless, and some to make you laugh. Each story two pages at most and some eerie pictures accompanying each one.
The book started nicely. "The big toe" and "The walk", the first two, were very simple and highly enjoyable, two stories to make you jump scare. "Cold as clay" and "The girl who stood on a grave" were also good.
Unfortunately the rest of the stories, which were plenty, were unremarkable or plainly forgettable, and a few of them simply a complete waste of time. I think this book can be awesome if you are a kid, but sadly I think I have outgrown child horror stories.
*** The movie (2019) was average, or a bit below average (5.5/10). "The big toe" was there, and several more included or mentioned, but I was surprised by the amount of stuff I did not recognize. Maybe I should have read the whole series before watching the movie. Still, it was an ok adaptation, at best.
Until next time,

A veces estás a punto de ver una pelicula cuando de repente te das cuenta de que está basado en un libro. A veces decidÃs que te importa.
Una colección de cuentos cortos de horror para asustarte hasta perder el sentido, y algunas para hacerte reir. Cada historia dos páginas cuando mucho y algunas fotos acompañando cada historia.
El libro empezó bien. "The big toe" y "The walk", los primeros dos, fueron muy simples pero altamente disfrutables, dos historias para hacerte saltar de miedo. "Cold as clay" y "The girl who stood on a grave" también estuvieron bien.
Desgraciadamente el resto de las historias, que fueron varias, no son destacables o directamente olvidables, y algunas de ellas simplemente una pérdida de tiempo. Creo que este libro podrÃa ser genial si sos un niño, pero lamentablemente creo que ya superé las historias de horror para chicos.
*** La pelÃcula (2019) es algo promedio, o un poco menos que promedio (5.5/10). "The big toe" estuvo ahÃ, y algunas más incluÃdas o mencionadas, pero me sorprendió la cantidad de cosas que no reconocÃ. Tal vez deberÃa haber leÃdo toda la serie antes de ver la pelÃcula. Aún asÃ, estuvo ok como adaptación, cuando mucho.
Hasta la próxima,
