The trailer definitely overhyped the movie to the point I refuse to believe I watched what was advertised! The beginning act was the best part of the movie. Started off with a decent premise. Father has a daughter possessed by demons, has to kill her. Body sent to the morgue. Father infiltrates the morgue and has conflict with the main protagonist because he's trying to destroy the body because it's still possessed. The subplot is the main character was once a cop, froze up when she was in conflict with a suspect and her partner ended up getting killed because of it. She's kept her ex boy friend's (also a cop) Xanax pills as comfort for her anxiety. They are broken up. He comes and picks up his things from her apartment in the movie. This subplot isn't really capitalized on much. I won't put many spoilers in here. But after the beginning, movie FREE FALLS. Weird things start to happen obviously because the demon prossesed body is in the morgue. The kills are boring and pretty much the same throughout. The camera work is Amateur at best. Very cliche predictable and unsatisfying ending. Watching the trailer is better than watching the movie. Honestly one of the worst horror movies I've seen. Wasn't even entertaining to watch like some bad horrors are. This was a cash grab...

Slender Man
(I) (2018)
Cringer Man... worst I've seen in a while
10 August 2018
There isn't much good I can say. The characters are very bland and forgettable. The approach they went with this movie was just horrible. Summoning slender man was the wrong way to go about it. I thought they would take a more subtle approach. They basically used slender man like the boogeyman in sinister 2. He appeared WAY TOO MUCH. Should of had him more of a shade background character. Not to mention slender man looked horrible. I can't believe they went with the cheesy internet depiction with the suit. The effects look high school grade at best. The only good thing I can say about the movie is that one of the scenes where a main character was making out with a boy from her class at his house turned out to be the most hilarious scene I've ever seen in my life. I literally died of laughter, cried real tears in the theater at how bad the scene was because she had a slender man hallucination during it and it was just so cringeworthy, silly looking and just flat out terrible. I've never laughed like that in my life. Ending was unsatisfactory and poorly executed. I was going to give it a 2 but the entertainment factor was there because it was so bad that it was good. So I give it a 3 for that. Wait until it hits streaming.
