"Really enjoyed! didn't really understand the low ratings, but as I always say, it's skewed expectations that are the culprit. Yes, it's a "Boogeyman movie" but it's not gonna be like Sinister for example. It felt like a more literal and kid friendly babadook, or before I wake even. It's a monster(literal or metaphorical) that serves as a manifestation of things like loss, grief and in this case, loneliness and being misunderstood. Long post yea, but it's a great gateway for new horror fans!

"I get that this is supposed to be a sociopolitical commentary about how society tends to interact through a screen and how most phone users are autistic (which I see as really disrespectful to the people this movie is aimed to) but I want to put the focus on the kid who got caught playing Fortnite during the national anthem. The kid's a hero."
"*spoilers* it was alright, very similar to a lot of other boogeyman movies like Babadook and extremely predictable but if youre like me and very easily entertained then itll still be enjoyable to watch. If you're looking for a new revolutionary hardcore horror movie youre gonna be bored very quickly. I'm not a big fan of movies where the happy ending is that the autistic character is starting to act "normal" tho and I highly dought that a kid would magically start trying to talk after watching their mother die right in front of them but sure. that was really my only issue with the movie but who knows I might be overreacting about that."
