If you loved LEGO Star Wars Holiday Special, try LEGO Star Wars Terrifying Tales
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Ken Cunningham, and they both carry the playful mood tag, and they sit in Animation / Comedy / Family / Science Fiction territory. If that's the register that drew you to LEGO Star Wars Holiday Special, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What LEGO Star Wars Terrifying Tales is
A LEGO-ified Star Wars special masquerades as a haunted house movie, which is exactly what you’d expect when someone decides to repurpose Vader’s castle as a hotel with complimentary lightsabers and complimentary existential dread. Poe Dameron and BB-8 get roped into Graballa the Hutt’s ill-conceived hospitality venture, where the decor is ominous and the Wi-Fi is nonexistent. The film treats its own absurdity with a straight face, which is both its charm and its quiet tragedy.
