Rough but palatable

This definitely wasn't my favorite movie. I can find redeeming qualities in most films so I'll start there. First, the score is decent! Could have been a little more ... effective, but was fun where it counted. The acting is baffling. It's almost like no one was there to direct them, which for young actors is (in my opinion) not their fault. It's like a photographer snapping a portrait while someone is looking down. It's not the subjects fault the picture turns out bad. There's moments of intensity that don't deserve intensity, and the dad never stops smiling, and is insincere at best. I've been going through a lot of indie horror movies on tubi, and while I can guarantee I've seen worse movies, this was a difficult watch. Could have been a lot shorter and probably been more effective. The backstory on the main villain was kind of too involved to be scary.

Nostalgic and sorta campy...

Just not in a very well-done way. I get the whole 80's vibe, it's just too slow and boring. The family drama and dynamics was fine and not badly done. I liked the little short stories the kids told. The reason this failed is really because of the chosen boogeyman. The Bloody Man wasn't scary, he was an annoying protagonist at best. Like the silly chucky doll, only without any backstory, motives, funny moments, or interesting lines. Just a bald guy bleeding from his head at random times, that was menacing-ish.

Not great but some fun qualities

This is a very strange mix of part 80s nostalgia, part singular slow burn narrative, part anthology stories scattered throughout, part horror, part campy. I was so confused, lol, but it wasn't all together unredeemable. The editing was pretty bad though which the film suffered for - too many weird silent gaps in between beats which slowed down the pacing to a distracting level. It was a lot of fun to see Lisa Wilcox and Tuesday Knight both from 'A Nightmare on Elm Street 4' work together again in the same film. The script may have benefited from having 40 minutes taken out of it. Regardless of the criticisms there was something fun and enjoyably stupid about this film.
