The Monster Squad is a 1987 film directed by Fred Dekker and written by Dekker and Shane Black. The film follows the exploits of a group of genre-savvy kids who seek to stop Dracula — and a host of other infamous movie monsters — from finding a mystical amulet and bringing about The End of the World as We Know It.The film was an out-of-print classic for a long time, but was given a new spiffy DVD release in time for its twentieth anniversary (with a Blu-ray release two years later). The makeup and special effects work on this film is a lesser-known effort of the late Stan Winston (who is better known for the frighteningly realistic puppets from classics such as the Terminator and Jurassic Park films).Not to be confused with the Saturday morning TV show.

All Men Are Perverts: Subverted by most of the Squad, including Franky. Only Rudy (and by accident, Franky) takes the pictures of the Girl Next Door, since the boys aren't old enough to have those kind of feelings yet (they don't really understand what a virgin is), and one of them is said girl's brother!

 The Monster Squad / int_173909
comment
Brainwashed and Crazy: Both inverted and played straight. Once transformed, the Wolf Man is completely subservient to Dracula; when a man, Dracula keeps him tied up and tranquilized. When he escapes, he calls the police - specifically, Del Crenshaw - to warn them about Dracula and his final words are a warning to Del that Dracula is after his son.

Mythology Gag
 The Monster Squad / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: several. The armadillos glimpsed in Dracula's castle in the prologue with Van Helsing, are a reference to Dracula (1931), where they were shown crawling about while Bela Lugosi gave Dwight Frye a tour of his castle. Armadillos are indigenous to the Americas and while their appearance in a Transylvanian castle was seen as a goof in the earlier film, they are obviously meant as an homage here. The plane Dracula is seen on (and which carries Frankenstein's coffin) has the word 'Browning' on the side. It's a reference to Tod Browning, who directed the 1931 Dracula. The line "Dead guys do not get up and walk away by themselves!" followed by a shot of a dead guy walking down a street is one to Night of the Creeps (1986) also written and directed by Fred Dekker. During the "Rock Until You Drop" montage, Sean points out the location of Dracula's mansion on Shadowbrook Road to Patrick on a map; also on the map is Chaney College, named for Lon Chaney Jr., famous for playing The Wolf Man.

 The Monster Squad / int_3d1fbeb3
comment
Virgin Power: Required to activate the amulet. Patrick's sister is revealed to not be a virgin as she led them to believe ("DOESN'T COUNT?!") but little five-year-old Phoebe is. Also, it seems to be an unspoken rule that said virgin has to be female, although admittedly the majority of the main cast - who are incidentally eligible - don't really know what a virgin is. Funny thing: Phoebe, who almost can't read (Since she's 5 years old) is WAY more helpful and eficient while casting the spell than Patrick's Sister

Deus ex Machina
 The Monster Squad / int_3fca462c
comment
Deus ex Machina: when Sean, Franky, and Fat Kid are in the Shadowbrook mansion. The Wolfman's coming towards them from the left, the three brides from the right, and Dracula's coming straight at them. Sean turns around and starts scrabbling at the alcove behind them and the statue in it. Then he pulls the arm of the statue... and a secret door spills them into the secret passage leading to the amulet. The passage itself is justified, as Van Helsing's followers took the amulet to the new world and built the mansion to hide the amulet from Dracula. But Sean finding the passage at that very moment is most definitely this trope.

Rewatch Bonus: A subtle one. Midway throughout the movie, the Wolf Man's human form escapes the mansion and calls the police in an attempt to warn them; he manages to get through to Sean's dad, Del. As he transforms in the phone booth, his last cognizant words are "He's gonna kill your son". In the third act, Del comes face to face with Dracula, who silkily and menacingly tells him "I will have your son." On a rewatch, you can see the horror on Del's face as he realizes that this was who the anonymous caller was warning him about - and Del's just shot him to no effect.

Foreshadowing: One that's so subtle it borders on Rewatch Bonus. At an early club meeting, Sean is bemoaning that the diary, possibly by the Van Helsing, is in German. But when the Squad later recruits Lisa to perform the ritual, she's so bad at reading and speaking German that it takes several attempts and some on the spot tutoring by Scary German Guy to get through it, not to mention is not actually a virgin. When Rudy's given "The Monster Test" to become a part of the club, one of the questions is "Two ways to kill a werewolf". His answer is "Silver Bullet" and "There's only one way to kill a werewolf." Later, one of the Squad shoves the Wolf Man out a window with a lit stick of dynamite shoved into his waistband, but he literally pulls himself together and comes back for more. Turns out there really is only one way to kill a werewolf.

Homage: The scene with Frankenstein and Phoebe by the pond is a Shout-Out to the original Frankenstein movie, when a little girl attempts to play with the monster by a lake. In this film, it ends much better for the little girl. Phoebe is even introduced with a daisy, as the original girl is. Dracula keeps Wolfman at bay with a cane topped with a silver wolf's head. That's how both Larry Talbot and the wolf that bit him were killed in the original film.

 The Monster Squad / int_a4c37cbe
comment
Mood Whiplash: A major problem with the film is that it doesn't really know if it wants to be a tongue-in-cheek Monster Mash or a family friendly adventure film with little horror-flavor thrown in. This leads into awkward moments where the level of gore/body count doesn't really match with the general mood of the scene and funny moments are followed by serious ones with little to no time catch breath in between. Scary German Guy's implied backstory as a Holocaust survivor is revealed immediately after a humorous scene of the man talking about monsters with the kids. Also, the subplot about Sean and Phoebe's parents marital problems. You go from a pleasant mother/daughter moment to Phoebe asking Emily if she's gonna yell at him again ("him" being Sean, but Emily thought she was talking about Del). A scene of Emily, while still apparently upset with her husband, during the "Rock Until You Drop" montage, is confused when all her silverware is gone. Due to Rudy melting them down to make silver bullets.

Chekhov's Skill: In an early scene, Patrick mentions that his sister takes German in high school. This is the main reason the Squad enlists her to read out the amulet's ritual later. However this is subverted, because Lisa is actually really bad at German (even with Scary German Guy's on-the-spot tutoring it takes her several attempts to get through it), not to mention she's not actually a virgin.

comment
Danger Takes A Back Seat: The man who becomes the Wolfman causes an incident at the police station when he tries to get the cops to lock him up, and when he grabs an officer's gun he's shot several times and apparently dies. He's taken away in an ambulance and transforms during the ride, grabbing the driver from behind and killing him.

Improbable Aiming Skills: Sean's father shoots Dracula in bat form out of the sky, with his non-dominant hand, while driving a car. Not to mention Rudy taking out the Wolf Man with a single bullet, though in that case it's implied that his human side took control just enough to hold him still for the shot..

Genocide Survivor: The titular club meets the "Scary German Guy," an old man who lives in their neighborhood, who translates Van Helsing's journal for them and gives them advice about fighting monsters. When they ask if he's met monsters before, he wistfully says he has. The audience then sees a concentration camp serial number tattooed on his forearm.

comment
Genre Throwback: To the Universal Horror Crossover films of the '40s such as Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man, which brought pre-existing monsters together onscreen for little reason other than it being cool. The Monster Squad ups the ante by having five recognizable monsters rather than the usual two or three, but otherwise is very much in the spirit of the classic films.

 The Monster Squad / int_d500b978
comment
Adaptational Wimp: Sure, Gill-man kills numerous police officers, but a single shotgun blast is enough to kill it. Compare this with him surviving numerous times being shot throughout his original trilogy and surviving just about each time. The Mummy also count for this. The Universal mummies where he is based on, are invulnerable/almost invulnerable and immortal undeads. This mummy seems to be based over Kharis, but even this more traditional mummy is invulnerable to physical attacks, even fire, and is inhumanly strong. Imhotep, in the other hand, is mostly a smart sorcerer with godlike powers on pair with Dracula. Compare those with the powerless and easily defeated mummy seen in Monster Squad.

Shown Their Work: Nearly impossible to know if it's this trope or just a plain old mistake, but Van Helsing's diary is written in German, despite the good doctor being Dutch. However, as a man of science in the late 1800s, Van Helsing would be fluent in German, and would most likely have written a scientific journal in that language, since that was the international language of scholars at the time, if only because more people would be able to read that than his native Dutch.
