Flay

I normally wouldn't bother reviewing a movie this bland but since no one else has bothered so far, I'll take a few minutes and maybe save someone else 90 mins.

A junkie mother dies under mysterious circumstances which the movie in not one but two cold opens assures us was supernatural. After that, her daughter has to return home to settle some affairs and care for her rebellious teenage brother. The supernatural force which is barely Slender Man starts menacing them in a series of whatever scares that might land for very young viewers.

The acting, the story, everything is just unmemorable. It's not even that the movie is remarkably bad. It's just blah. When you picture grade Z horror made by people that were neither exceptionally incompetent nor remotely talented, this is exactly the movie you see.

The music gives me the creeps. The muted colors and the splash of red scenes are perfect for the mood. Loved every moment of it.

Not sure what all the hate is about for this movie. Flay is quite decent and entertaining.

2019 has been a mess of a year so far and movies like Flay certainly aren't doing it any favors.

After the death of her mother a girl returns home, rekindles friendships, reunites with her estranged brother and battles a supernatural force.

Seen that before, but it's not normally this bad. The story is an absolute abomination, I can't stress just how much of a mess it is. At no point did I care where the story was going or the fates of any of the characters. In fact a lot of the time I really had very little clue as to what I was even watching.

Does that look like Slender Man on the cover? Well it is, kind of.........but this isn't a Slender Man movie. They just decided to throw him in because erm....reasons?

Awful plot, awful sfx, awful cast, just plain awful all round.

The Good:

That would be a no

The Bad:

Awful deaths

Rather boring

No originality

It seems like a fun little movie that my daughter enjoyed (she's 11 and she likes horror movies) I made sure there's nothing too violent and it's not. Flay has the right amount of thrills and jump scares for her.
