HeatVision reports Paramount/Platinum Dunes has hired cousins Mark and Brian Gunn to a pen a family friendly Monster Squad reboot which could have franchise possibilities. The original co-created/written by Shane Black (Lethal Weapon 1-4) had subversive sexual imagery it even had children making silver bullets in school and firing guns. It was pretty much a horror version of The Goonies. I loved it growing up but I'm not sure how new audiences will react to children fighting monsters. The only issue I have is that Rob Cohen (Mummy 3, Fast & The Furious) is directing who isn't known for making good movies. It's unknown what monsters will appear but the original lineup was Dracula, Wolfman, Mummy, Gillman and a friendly Frankenstein.
