Alright so I don’t think the movie was that bad as people say I just don’t think it had much creative originality if that makes sense, I mean the “boogeyman” was a kinda original concept because yknow most cultures would have their “boogeyman”, the bodach, the butezmann etc and I was just trying to guess what cryptid or spirit the monster was the whole time. I got nothing. Which isn’t a bad thing because I think it was original?? I mean it was definitely inspired heavily by mimics and wendigos at least. how they slowly build it up, making it literally just a monster in the wardrobe or under the bed and then into literal nightmare fuel. Looking past the questionable VFX and acting it’s not that bad.
Side note, Sadie is meant to be 16-17, I am sixteen, and I would NOT have the balls to be going into the abandoned building of the person who killed himself in my houses old home, squaring up to a demon with a hockey stick and going into a room where someone is actively being murdered with a etching needle to defend myself.
