Mel Gibson, the big star from the Lethal Weapon franchise, is teaming up with Kevin James and a crew of others for a fresh family horror film called Monster Summer. You heard it right, folks. The movie is scheduled to hit theaters on October 4th, just in time for Halloween. Now, isn’t that chillingly exciting?

Remember about three years ago when chatter around the rumor mill suggested that Gibson had signed on for a quirky project known as Boys of Summer? Well, that project morphed into what we know today as Monster Summer, a film set to transport audiences on a spellbinding fantasy adventure.

Story Time: What is Monster Summer About?

Directed by David Henrie, the magician behind “This Is the Year”, the script was penned by Cornelius Uliano and Bryan Schulz, the whizzes who brought us “The Peanuts Movie”. Monster Summer takes us on a mystifying journey with a local boy from Martha’s Vineyard.

The story begins when his best friend vanishes into thin air. The twist? He starts suspecting that a sneaky supernatural entity is behind it. Joining forces with a retired detective, played by Gibson, they soon uncover a spine-chilling truth. A witch, who recently moved to their island, is possibly responsible.

Can you imagine having your summer disrupted this way? I don’t know about you, but that’s a vacation gone wrong in my book. Luckily, Noah and his friends have got a fighter’s spirit. They band together to take on this mystifying force, determined to save their island. Monster Summer will undoubtedly have you on the edge of your seats!

Who’s Bringing This Monster Tale to Life?

Our main guy, Mel Gibson, isn’t the only hotshot in the cast. Get ready to see TV sitcom favorite, Kevin James from “King of Queens”, and young talent Mason Thames from “The Black Phone”. Also joining the lineup are Lorraine Bracco of “Goodfellas” fame, Noah Cottrell from “The Spiderwick Chronicles”, and more. It’s truly a star-studded affair!

Who’s Behind the Camera?

Monster Summer marks the debut feature film of Pastime Pictures, a studio built from scratch by Dan McDonough and John Blanford. The name Pastime Pictures is a nod towards the founders’ past as Production Assistants, hence the “PA’s Time.” Talk about humble beginnings!

So, are you ready to kickstart your Halloween season with Mel Gibson and Kevin James in Monster Summer? Don’t forget to leave your thoughts and share your expectations for what promises to be the family horror film of the season. Comment below!
