I’m not sure why so many people are hating on this movie. I thought it was actually pretty good. It had some good build ups, some good jump scares, and some really nice creepy scenes. This was definitely one of the more better horror movies that I think has come out this year. I wouldn’t be surprised if it becomes a franchise with a bunch of follow ups.

Another bad king's movie adaptation. This movie look like a Disney show, dumb adults, no script, no make Sense Situations, like a man suicide in your house and the same day you aré singing lullabies to your daughter in the same house..

I was a bit disappointed with this, but that's probably my own fault for taking the title so literally. I went in expecting a nice boogie. I was even practising some of my dance moves in the kitchen while I made dinner before I sat down to watch it. Instead of a movie about a man who loves to boogie, I was subjected to a movie about people who are scared of the dark. It wasn't a bad movie, but I wouldn't call it great either. I like Sophie Thatcher, but if I could give her character some advice it would be that she should buy a flashlight and maybe also turn on the lights.

I watched The Boogeyman tonight at a (single day early) preview screening, and loved it. It’s not just jump scares, there’s real tension and buildup. They perfectly recreate the noises of wooden floors that you as a child used to lie there too scared to move while trying to figure out what it was while at your aunt & uncles farm in rural Queensland near Biloela. The level of dark around certain parts of the room. The unease if there’s something there or your eyes are playing tricks on you or not. Did you really hear those noises, were they voices? This movie wasn’t directed by someone trying to make a horror movie for audiences and ratings. No, this movie was directed by someone trying to re-create childhood terrors and trauma. Normally with horror movies I say it makes no difference if you watch it with the lights on or off. Watch this one with the lights off. But have a torch handy. For your own protection.

"The Boogeyman quickly becomes one of my favorite horror flicks of this year! It won't leave any viewers used to these formulaic stories surprised, but director Rob Savage tremendously elevates a film that More

I've watched a couple of former cinematic takes on Stephen Kings Boogeyman novel and this is by far, the least inspiring.

The real issue lies, in what can best be described, as the treatment of the tale of the cruel, child stalking creature, that potentially lives in every closet.

Its tone is More

Based on a 1973 short story of Stephen King, the movie itself doesn't bring neither anything new and follows the pragmatic of 80% of the terror movies out there.

The issue isn't the style of Stephen King, that is more than know today, but the way you convey it on a screenplay. It simply didn't More

Oh well, I suppose I was being overly optimistic in expecting anything different from this. The "Harper" family are still grieving after the death of the wife/mother and with each struggling to deal with this aftermath the father (Chris Messina), elder daughter "Sadie" (Sophie Thatcher) and the youn More
