Storyline

Every culture has one – the horrible monster fueling young children's nightmares. But for Tim, the Boogeyman still lives in his memories as a creature that devoured his father 16 years ago. Is the Boogeyman real, or did Tim make it up to explain why his father abandoned his family?

Critics consensus

“The plot is been-there done-that generic, and none of the shock effects can do anything to build up suspense.”

A bloated 86 minutes of overzealous spookiness.

Fright fans expecting anything more than the occasional jolt will be sorely disappointed.

A humourless trudge through haunted house cliches, it's unlikely to scare anyone old enough to get past the box office.

RTThe Wolfman ComethSep 9, 2025

Uninspired slop with a dopey mythology that hoped it could generate some excitement solely based on the title.
