The first outing of the trilogy, Fear Street 1994, was a brutal slasher that saw most of its young cast killed off one by one after they accidentally unearthed the remains of a witch who local legend claims cursed their small town.
Despite being based on the novel series of the same name by Goosebumps scribe RL Stine, the Fear Street movies are gory, scary, and not at all suitable for kids.
Throughout the action of Fear Street 1978, Tommy Slater kills only Shadyside campers and no Sunnydale residents during his gruesome massacre, but why does the movie make a point of this detail? Fear Street 1978 is the second installment of Netflix’s dark new horror trilogy.
