Boo!

Never heard of this till today when I skimmed its low scores on Redbox. Wouldn't have thought of it again had Vudu not added it to Free with ads.

The intro had me spellbound. The score is immediately and consistently effective, and some great early cinematography combined to give me literal goosebumps. Had an immediate "It Follows" vibe, ironically to discover it too is set in Detroit and seemingly opens on the same street. This vibe carried the first act for me, with early driving shots seemingly replicating similar if not exact locales of Detroit's "rotting corpse" and ironically peaking with it's own similiarly styled car sex scene. Doubly ironic, this also marks the films climax and things go downhill from there.

45 mins of dialogue that really serves little to no purpose later, we get a crammed 15 min rush to ending that has a few shock gore moments but little to no scares or creep. It all just seems disjointed and largely buying for time, and not even the consistently superb score can save its on screen stumbles.

6/10 for me (slightly above mediocre/lukewarm). I do not regret it as I have many more days of October Halloween horror to find, it was free on Vudu, and again I am a sucker for its intro vibes of "It Follows." The score alone was worth discovering.

If you are a sucker for any and all Halloween-themed movies like me and opt to give it a go, I'd recommend finding it free and saving Halloween night viewing for something a bit more solid

I can just tell that i waited,waited and waited, and while enjoying some cool music in the background, nothing really happened, for a long long while, so with 10 mins left, all and everything is mashed into one big senseless scream of hillbilly rednecked and far too long awaited cataclysm of blood fire and horror that were more disgusting than horryfying aka sickening than scary, because i didnt get scared, though it seemed like the actors did. the elaboration may begin. co2 -poisoning, lsd in the cloth washing machine powder,ecstasyated candy, schizophrenia juvenilis and adultinilis.

acting, ok but some stiff performance by the boychild of the family. script, bad -tells us merely nothing ,so ai staat tu wånda, have they overlooked the true meaning of an urban myth/legend/folklore??.

take a look and make up your mind yourself, the grumpy old man barely recommends this one.

The storyline had potential but they blew it. The acting was a lot to be desired as well. Not the worst movie I've ever seen (Blair Witch holds that title) but close

Dysfunctional family gets a Boo! Package left on their door step just before Halloween and their young son warns them that it's real. His father tells him it's nonsense and just an urban legend - and so it begins.

I watched this all the way through so I could write an honest review of it. I will say I didn't hate it. There was enough sensible character development and conversations that didn't patronize the viewers but the story-line, some of the acting, and the direction seemed pretty lame and amateur at times.

There were some okay horror elements and there were some cheesy ones and although the third act was fairly fast-paced and horror oriented it was all pretty amateur. I can't give this any more than 3/10. I wouldn't feel fair rating this any less than 3 but I can't in good faith go any higher. It certainly does NOT deserve the 8, 9 , or 10 stars that the people involved in this movie have given it. Ignore those reviews.

No one and I do mean no one can even act in this stupid excuse of a movie.The plot was garbage because there basically wasn't one.The script seems to be written in about an hour by someone who has never left their basement.It's just one steaming pile of crap that should have never made it past the cutting room floor.I just can't say enough bad about this "movie." Save yourself the trouble of watching this garbage and just go to bed.
