Hilarious nightmare fuel

Rating: 4/10 (6 June 2020)

There are few films that can create such imaginatively creepy monster but also be so void of tension. Halfway through I was confused that this somehow linked to one of Jim Henson's Universes. The constant flashbacks to youth and the empty town meant that the scares seemed like they were just gags. I couldn't tell if this was a Thriller horror, or a horror comedy - the result is either too serious or too inadvertently humorous.
