THE END OF OAK STREET

We saw the film, and reactions were decidedly mixed. Our editor, Phil Roberts, had this to say about the film:
“Overall, The End of Oak Street is a roaring good time that comes frustratingly close to being something truly special. David Robert Mitchell has crafted a wonderfully nostalgic throwback to the 1980s Amblin era, complete with eerie suburban landscapes, creeping dread, old-school scares, and enough prehistoric mayhem to keep the popcorn flying.”
