I'm not sure if these streaming services are run by Actual people anymore. I'm convinced it's the MCP computer head from Tron giving orders through an algorithm
Who wrote this script? It can't be a person. This should be a parody. Yet it's played straight. And I had a great laugh regardless.
Ok so simple set up based on the infamous Momo/slender man internet memes. Grimcutty appears to kids who see his image and unless they kill their parents, they end up getting hurt themselves.
Everyone gets sucked into this challenge very quickly. People go from zero to one hundred real quick so you can't take any of the characters seriously.
There's no development at all. We don't care about any of them. Bland soup this is.
The monster Itself looks like the grudge girl who ended up taken a lot of protein powder. It's shown right away so no suspense there. Not hidden in the dark, nothing . When it lurks. It's like some hulking football player. I was laughing Every-time it appeared.
This is basically an R rated goosebumps episode.
The dad is actually the scariest thing in this movie!!
He should be the one stalking everyone.
Nothing is worse than a controlling parent and this guy plays him all too well. Not sure how he ended up with a lovely wife like that.
But HEY. This movie has zero logic.
The dialogue is beyond forced and awkward. Everytime someone speaks, you can hear the doubt with the delivery.
I don't fault the actors. No one has any confidence in the material.
And the commentary on the way internet challenges get out of control does nothing here. There's no pay off. It's just. Everyone gets swept up in the hype and ok yeah don't believe things you read on Reddit, YouTubers suck and don't fall for stay at home mom blogs, they could lead to an internet meme killing your kids.
Wow amazing
I would've preferred a contrast of how different parents handle situations like this instead of a knee jerk mob reaction.
The end bit is truly something to behold.
Not sure how one suddenly has the strength to break a car window like it's made of paper and not get any kind of cuts. Super NURSE mom.
And then suddenly she just accepts that her daughter is telling the truth because after all that, she knows she wasn't lying about the kid being held captive. Mm ok very jarring but the movie has to end.
When the daughter stabbed the dad, I clapped, thank goodness. Unfortunately he is subdued like the monster.
And they all forgive eachother like it's nothing. I believe a divorce plus therapy is in order after all that.
The monster is a projection of crazy parents who are over protective and don't listen to kids. Wink wink. Nudge nudge. Get it?!
No atmosphere. Was there a music score? I can't even remember.
Would've been ok as a short film. Nothing more
I just want a scary movie. How hard is that? I'll stick with the classics. Things are just beyond cookie cutter today.
