Netflix’s Fear Street movies filled a big hole in the streamer’s offerings. Stranger Things is a nostalgic, horror-tinged book adaptation series, and the Fear Street saga did the same thing for movies. The first three movies based on R.L.

Finally, Fear Street is back from the grave with a new installment that makes one huge swing but plays everything else disappointingly safe, down to the smallest detail.
