What can you do for a scary comedy movie for kids?

Answer 1

Well, Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas and Corpse Bride are classics.

Gremlins and Gremlins 2 are also great ones.

Also Lake Placid, this silly 90s movie about a giant crocodile. There's not too much blood and violence for kids, and it's full of cheesy 90s dialogue and characters.

There's also this silly movie about witches, Hocus Pocus, that I liked a lot as a kid.

Also The Goonies. Always a classic; only problem is the kids might have seen it already.

And the Jurassic Park movies are pretty tame for today's kids.

Oh, and there's this alien movie called The Facultythat's really, really great. It might scare really young children (like 6 - 7 years), but it's very funny and clever, and I doubt it'd scare any kid over the age of 9 - 10. It's definitely supposed to be a Horror/comedy, and honestly, the CGI is a bit dated, so the scary alien stuff doesn't look too real.
