I went with Monster House, mostly because I got bored waiting for Clerks II to start.
It was far creepier than it had any right to be, being an animated kids film. Sort of Coraline by Neil Gaimen without being as good. This isn't to say it was a bad movie, just nowhere near as good as a Neil book -- and, really, what is?
The animation was really sharp and the main character , D.J., was pretty endearing.
It was, all in all, generally mediocre. Apart from those times when it was being unexpectedly scary, my attention kept drifting to fix on completely unrelated topics, which is never a good sign.
