![]() Romero's third film in the Night of the Living Dead franchise focuses on a handful of military and science personnel who remain alive in the wake of a zombie apocalypse and work in underground facilities. Mike meets with Lucas and Max (still together <3) and Will, and the foursome heads to the movies to watch an advance preview of Day of the Dead. It's got a Gap, and a Burger King, and a bunch of other throwback storefronts that double as modern-day product placement. No matter, though, since the mall is awesome! Capitalism, something-something. With kissing and Mike's Corey Hart karaoke done, Mike leaves the House of Hopper to head to Starcourt Mall, a new consumer paradise in Hawkins that's succeeded in nuking the city's downtown businesses. ( Riverdale could never.) Anyway, you might be surprised to know that Hopper ( David Harbour) doesn't love Mike and Eleven's physical relationship and wants to keep them apart. A fun thing about Stranger Things that this scene immediately makes clear: The teens on the show are literal teens (Wolfhard is 16, Brown is 15), so it lends all their awkward romantic interactions a more authentic amount of awkwardness. Mike and Eleven and Lucas and Max and Will: One year later and Stranger Things 3 starts as most blockbuster entertainment events in 2019 begin, with Corey Hart's "Never Surrender" blasting on the soundtrack and Mike and Eleven making out. He has just one year to set things right. As punishment, the lead scientist is choked to death by a supersoldier who comes across as part Ivan Drago, part Darth Vader (for purposes of these recaps, we'll call him Darth Drago). The general in charge of the facility seems unfazed by the people slop, but he's righteously angry at the project's latest failure. Unfortunately for them, the experiment doesn't just fail, it blows back on the room, turning the poor lab workers into piles of smoldering human goo. ![]() ![]() Russian scientists and military personnel watch a giant laser blast into what we know as the Upside Down - they want seemingly want to buy a gate. Whether Netflix gave the Duffer brothers a budgetary upgrade between seasons is officially unclear, but let's just say this sequence looks like a deleted scene from Captain America: The First Avenger. Stranger Things 3 Review: The Perfect American Summer EscapeĬold open: We start in the past, June 28, 1984, four months before the events of Stranger Things 2 - and in Russia. Oh, and Steve Harrington ( Joe Keery) was given the full Andy Dwyer treatment, shifting from a contemptible bully in Season 1 to underdog hero in Season 2 - thanks, in part, to his awesome partnership with Dustin ( Gaten Matarazzo). Joyce Byers ( Winona Ryder), meanwhile, lost her boyfriend, Bob (Sean Astin), in a fight with the demo-dogs, creatures from the Upside Down. Amid the science-fiction, relationships happened too: Mike ( Finn Wolfhard) and Eleven finally got together, as did Lucas ( Caleb McLaughlin) and the new girl, Max ( Sadie Sink). ![]() Fortunately, Eleven ( Millie Bobby Brown) stopped the monster by closing the gate under Hawkins' local secret government lab. Many of them seem more annoyed that a Netflix app is not available for the Nintendo Switch than anything else, as they’d like to watch the Stranger Things series on theirs.Last season on Stranger Things 2 : The kids of Hawkins Middle School celebrated Halloween 1984 by dressing like the Ghostbusters - and then a bunch of bad stuff happened, including that the shadow monster (rechristened the Mind Flayer late in the season) possessed Will Byers ( Noah Schapp) and tried to escape the Upside Down once and for all.
