MY son's bogeys are more scarier than this pile of snot!

Rating: 2/10 (17 April 2016)

Really disappointing. Would have given this movie at least another 3 stars if any Bogeys had met their demise by consumption by the Bogey man OR anyone else for that matter!
Once AGAIN, I'm annoyed at myself for believing in a brand and assuming this movie would be good because it belonged to he Blum House Franchise.........WRRRRRONNNNNG with a capital WRRRRRRR!
The only actual jump scare that made me move back in a response associated with such a scene was actually NOT a jump scare.
When the son slowly emerged from the box in the fashion of a jack-in-the box with a hangover, I slowly found myself moving away from the screen and this was ONLY to work out who the heck was able to perform such a creepy contortionist move without getting back ache whilst uttering the moans of a ghost suffering with acute brain damage.
None of the characters were likable; well not the ones you were MEANT to like anyways. The Man who allegedly (and to my sheer disappointment never) ate bogeys was the only smart actor in this movie, barely featuring in it and covering his face with make-up when he did.
Total lack of dynamic between the so-called family members, lack of sufficient back story so that viewers may at least be able to attempt working out what rubbish they're being expected to swallow whilst paying for it.
And then the absolute shocker that had me thinking I was seeing things? Vincent D'Onofrio choosing to appear (however fleetingly, so he clearly wasn't too convinced this was a good movie either)in a movie which is centred around a Bogey Man? Firstly, the name of the Antagonist was false advertising as he apparently ate CHILDREN (or their souls) and NOT there bogeys which I genuinely feel would have made the movie a lot more interesting.
As for the ending, as much as any kind of murder involving innocent people (especially children) turns my stomach (either in a movie or real life), I am ashamed to say that I was pretty relieved when I no longer had to watch better acting from dead children in the WORST Hallowe'en costumes an make-up when compared to the ones that were meant to be alive.
This crap was so bad at being crap that it didn't even smell. The sequel should be called Sinster 2, Seriously????" as contemplating the need for a second helping of this nasal drip is just insane.
