Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer (2007): And here’s where we get into the real quality! If you haven’t seen Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer, do so at once. The story is outrageously entertaining, and serves as a terrific contemporary monster tale. While Trevor Matthews captivates viewers, Robert isn’t far behind. In fact, this is one of my favorite films to feature the seasoned vet. Englund takes on the role of focal antagonist, and he’s absolutely gold here. His rapid transformation from professor to hideous beast is grand, and if the chalkboard scene alone doesn’t win you over, I don’t know what will!
