Title: It's not good ... but ...
Product review: I think though that people are being a bit hard on this film. It's not "House of the Dead" or "Alone in the Dark" bad, it's problem is that it's not doing ANYTHING even remotely interesting or inventive on any level. "Boogeyman" is just a clone of both "Wes Craven's 'They'" and "Darkness Falls." Neither of which were really memorable for ... well ... much of anything. In fact I almost felt as if the opening scene when Tim's Dad was taken was almost LIFTED DIRECTLY from "Darkness Falls."I could NEVER recommend buying a copy, but if you wanted to rent it you could do it without feeling robbed. For that matter, if you need a scary movie for someone a little younger, there's virtually no gore and I didn't notice any foul language. In that role maybe this has a little bit of value. Not much, mind you, but maybe a little.
