Mister Creep

So let me start by saying this was a very very creepy film. The choices made by the characters, the acting, logic and writing do not add up nor are we given really any answers as to what is going on. HOWEVER, I thoroughly enjoyed the film. Most scary movies aren't scary. But this one kind of was. The jump scares were terrifying and unexpected. The final scene was horrifically creepy. The characters sucked so I didn't really care what happened to them but I had a major appreciation for how terrifying the wall art was in Vals room. Overall, definitely give this movie a try. Yeah it has some issues but it was really good and will get your heart racing. Trust me there is worse out there.

The Trailer Is The ONLY Way To Watch This Movie, and Let YOUR Imagination Complete It. Then, It Won't Be Written By a Moron. LOL!

Pretty Much EVERY Event In This Movie Is Based On Police Leaving ALL The Evidence and Files Behind, When a Station Closes.

Does That Let You Know How WELL WRITTEN This Movie Was, By An Intelligent Human Being?

And Like ALL Found Footage Movies, We Are FORCED To Listen To The DUMBEST Women Willing To Never Stop Talking and Constantly Ask Questions a 5 Year Old Knows The Answers To. LOL!

And Finally. Mister Creep Looks The Way He Does, Because a Clown Mask Was Melted To His Face? AND He Got Married and Had Kids, WHILE Looking Like This?

Quality, Intelligent Writer's and Filmmaker's Are a Thing Of The Past. This Movie, Like EVERYTHING Now, Is Obviously Made By The Average Person, Who Was Raised On Movies and TV, NEVER Actually Living and Gaining Common Sense Or Knowledge.

Ignorant, Unrealistic Crap Is NOW All We Get. Like This.

Right, well, I have to admit that I was lured into watching the 2022 horror movie "Mister Creep" on account of it being a horror movie that I had never seen, much less every heard about, and also because I found the movie's cover to be interesting.

However, had I known that this was one of those atrocious found footage movies with insanely lousy camera work all over the place, I would simply have skipped on the movie entirely. Yeah, I absolutely loathe the found footage crap genre.

Now, if writer and director Isaac Rodriguez had opted to go for a properly filmed movie, and thus making an actual movie instead of a home video project, the movie would have been all the more enjoyable, because the script certainly had potential, but was ruined by the shoddy camera work.

Needless to say that I was not familiar with the actors and actresses on the cast list, and in all honesty, despite of this being a lousy found footage garbage heap, then the acting performances were fair.

Visually, then the movie was okay. I was not overly impressed with the effects in the movie. Perhaps because I couldn't distract from the shaky camera that was all over the place.

I am sure that fans of the found footage genre will enjoy the movie. Personally, I just couldn't get into it.

My rating of writer and director Isaac Rodriguez's 2022 movie "Mister Creep" lands on a generous three out of ten stars.

While researching a missing person's case, a group of student filmmakers stumble across an urban legend involving a mysterious figure known as Mister Creep and begin investigating the story, leading them into a deadly conspiracy with a supernatural figure that will put them all at risk.

Overall, this was a pretty enjoyable if somewhat flawed effort. When it works best is the engrossing setup that manages to provide this one with the kind of small-town lore that would believably set these events in motion. The early portion here focuses on the team's means of finding work in the film industry and trying to keep a job going in that regard leads to the decision to switch over to the missing person's case and eventually turns into the early setup of the figure haunting the area. Getting the brief bits we do about his psychological make-up with the clown mask, the mysterious nature of his summoning ritual with the static-filled TV signal, and the interrogation video that sheds a lot of light on the personality of the figure quite nicely. As well, the episodic nature of how this is presented allows the film to ramp up the intensity and scares as it goes along feels rather nice. The visit to the police station he was reportedly kept at that results in their friend going missing while the eerie visit to the sympathetic writer offers the kind of startling scares that go hand-in-hand with the type of psychological torment featured here. The finale on the abandoned farm is the best part with the killers' appearance at various spots throughout the location serving up some decent jump-scares and providing some genuinely chilling scenes when a series of double-crosses are revealed that bring about a gruesome finish to it all. These manage to give it some likable features as there isn't much wrong with this one but it does have some minor issues. The biggest drawback to the film is the film's reliance on the abundance of cliches familiar within the found-footage genre. With the characters hurtling themselves into obviously dangerous territory with nothing for protection, a proclivity to film stuff that has no business being recorded due to the safety of human life at stake, and believing that splitting up is a good idea among a seemingly endless list of other features, it finds itself running on the familiar and unlikable ground rather easily making it relatively easy to miss a lot of the positive factors when you're complaining about it trotting out the usual irritating tropes. The other drawback to this one concerns several other blunders made in the filmmaking presentation that belie its found-footage origins almost as much as its storyline drawbacks. Despite it presenting the various chapters rather organically throughout here, these would not be present if the footage was genuinely found and offered as such since that would require post-production editing to insert into the running time. As well, the interrogation scenes that are shown here give us clues to his personality and mindset feel completely at odds with what's going on as the scenes are taken from the actual police cameras rather than a more logical viewing solution like being watched on TV so it also hinders the illusion quite a bit. These factors are what hold this down.

Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Language and Violence.

Keeps you on the edge of your seat constantly. The Mister Creep character was original and well done. The atmosphere stays ominous and spooky throughout. I found myself covering my eyes and peeping through my fingers during a few scenes.

The acting is good without being over-the-top-annoying as is the case with many horror films.

I've seen nearly all of this director's films. I enjoy them because they seem made by a horror fan, for horror fans, as I saw someone else put it. Mister Creep is, without a doubt, his best offering yet. I'd definitely rewatch it.

If you enjoyed movies like Horror In The High Desert 1 & 2, you may enjoy this one also. (The vibe of Mister Creep reminded me somewhat of Horror In The High Desert 2.)
