Title: I'm going to be the odd-man out...
Product review: ... but I was severely underwhelmed by "The Boogens."This is a very pedestrian effort. Step-by-step, i was ahead of where the movie was going and invariably dissapointed when it got there. The monsters are unimpressive, the actors are nothing to cheer about, and the script is weak in all respects, except one: the lead characters are not as dumb as the average players in the most typical tales of this type. It's not a bad film, per se, but it's most remarkable feature is its total mediocrity.If you want a good monster movie of this vein, I recommend the classic "Island of Terror." If you want something a little more contemporary, go with "Tremors." The former is closer in tone and nature to "The Boogens" than the latter, but both will sate your need for creepy critters and thrills more effectively than "The Boogens."
