    For a second there I thought Phelous actually had a purple dick on his head.

    Nah, i thought he was into cosplaying deformed bunnies nowadays.

    But yeah, this was better than the other Boogeyman series. And it says something when even Uli Lommel can make a better film titled "Boogeyman" than Sam Raimi.

    But i bet the second movie's gonna suck.

    Great review Phelous, I understand that as a genuine horror movie, it sucked. But anyone else besides me cringe at the scene where the metal spike pierces the back of the guy's head which later impales his girlfriend in the "mock" kiss death.

    Because I don't know about you guys but that part just made me shudder a little. 0.0

    I have a strong urge to give Phelous' head... head.

    There's a sequel to this Boogeyman too?! D:

    Great video Phelous! :D
  • HorrorMovie Critic  - oh no

    Oh dear god I think I own this movie! It came as a double feature with something called "The nightmare never ends".

    Since he's on a Boogeyman kick, anyone here remember that awful made-for-TV Disney "horror" movie about the Boogeyman? I think it was called "Don't Look Under The Bed" - not saying he should review that one, as it's Disney horror (so that should say enough) but all this Boogeyman reminded me of that movie for some reason. o_O

    Lol, I remember watching that movie when it came out. I was still a kid. ....I am ashamed to say that one part of that movie did creep me out. XD Just the smoke and lights coming from under the bed. >___> blegh.

    Hm. Maybe because both main characters in each movie had something to do with the creation of said "Boogeyman"?
  • xXIsaIsaXx
    avatar
    That could very well be the reason I thought of it! And, I was quite young when that movie came out as well. For a children's horror movie, I think it accomplished it's task, but looking at it now I just have to raise my eyebrow at it. XD
  • lucrbelanger
    This is from a fellow Canadian not far off in New Brunswick. I've been going trough a lot of stress lately but I had to watch this video again two dozen times for when the kid gets his neck crushed by the window. Thank you so much Phelan, I was laughing until my sides hurt and I really needed it. The cheering up is much appreciated bro.

    Cheered up by the death of a child. Go figure.

    HAHAHAHAHA... oh man. This review was really funny. You were right that this is the best Boogeyman so far, it definitely seems like an old campy horror movie I could watch and enjoy riffing on.

    Water+Mirror=Fire Of course! By the way, excellent job at replicating Dr. Claw in your videos.

    lol random brad cameo was great but i liked the randomer loyd cameo better xD

    maybe the water is the flamable substance? xD
  • murkypuddle
    This movie kind of seems like it's taking a ride on the coattails of 'The Amityville Horror'. Came out around the same time, with demon possesion, imanimate objects being posessed, yada yada.

    Gotta love how that "ominous" shard remaining in the graveyard at the end will be destroyed by the sprinkler system turning on later that day.
  • Phelous
    avatar
    Nope it gets saved, by someone who would really never do that.
  • Soiny
    avatar
    Epic derp face. Lol.

    Even though I usually cringe when I see kids that aren't lil shits or the spawns of satan in horror movies die, THAT just made me laugh pretty hard. XD The squish effect slayed me, man.

    Even before he made "Zombie Nation," the director sure as hell knows hope to make crap. BTW, he didn't direct the sequel, and according to IMDB, that film sucks more that this one.
  • Phelous
    avatar
    He apparently did some uncredited co-directing on it, co wrote, plus he's one of the "stars" in it.
  • SpeedyEric
    avatar
    Really? ...Does he say "Is it safe?" too many times as well?

    Anyway, thanks for the movie knowledge which you might eventually give us in your upcoming review.

    Catch ya on the flip side. ;)

    For some weird reason, the face Phelous pulls around 2:02 REALLY creeped me out...
    .. The way it just froze there... watching... judging. @@

    I thought I acsodently paused the video there he held it so long! he's pretty good at that!
  • PhoCarrot
    avatar
    Oh God, me too. I thought I'd paused it so I kept pressing play, but it wouldn't go away. D:

    I hope the Swamp Zombies!!! music doesn't replace the Birdemic music

    Yay for Brad cameo!

    Awesome review! Never heard of this movie before but I've got about as much interest in it now as I did before.

    You do know you now need to review Mirrors(another lame modern horror movie about ghost mirrors with the now generic ghost looks and designs), The Candy Man Trilogy, and Urban Legend: Bloody Marry(A semi-sequal to the movies about a killer killing people based off old urban legends except this one it's all being done by the ghost of Bloody Marry... so yeah more mirror ghost!)

    awww, Loyd got a cameo too!

    I gotta say Phelous, not watching you die at the end of the reviews has sucked out the entertainment value of your reviews.
  • EarthboundXE

    Well your username fits, haha.
  • Phelous
    avatar
    The water mirror fire spread and I was unable to COME OUT OF THE CLOSET so I was burned alive and died a most painful death.
    HAPPY!?
    Really though if the silly little deaths at the end were the ONLY entertainment value of the review there was kinda a problem there.

    So, nothing came from the little boy murdering his mother's lover? Not even a mention of him getting psychiatric help as a child or anything like that?

    Its no wonder the brother is a troubled mute and the sister is... perfectly normal.

    Phelous did anybody ever tell you that you could probably win the world championship in staring contests?
  • Kimarous
    avatar
    A bizarre-looking spirit based on a reflective surface that "lives in the world of the mirror" and kills people...

    How I wish I could rewrite this movie to make it a Jojo's Bizarre Adventure spinoff about J. Geil and his "The Hanged Man" stand. Oh, how better it would have been.

    Darn it. 1980's. So a Kanzaki Shiro joke is 20 years too early.
  • VoiceAgainstPropaganda

    Oh come on. Another Boogeyman and Boogeyman 2? Don't any questions go off in the actors head saying "this is stupid" or "I'm not sinking that low"? Guess even dignity can be bought these days.

    Oh. And this was a nice review.
  • EarthboundXE
    avatar
    Actors gotta get paid somehow.

    That's one explanation for terrible movies.
  • DanceNerd
    avatar
    Funny as ever!
    At the awkward pause part, I thought my internet had failed. Guess it was just an epic Phailous!

    eh?! Eh?! ..no.
  • Tetsu Deinonychus

    Great vid, Phelous!

    BTW I love way Brad as listed in the credits. That was hilarious.
  • The_Awesometeer

    what a weird idea for a horror movie
  • Mr.Evil
    avatar
    Ever notice how personal acts of violence in fiction somehow create curses and boogeymen that can kill people off left, right, and center, like in The Grudge or this movie? I mean, forget wars and genocide, forget execution chambers and hospitals - it's those isolated murders in people's homes that you have to look out for.

    Cheap writing. Such hacks should be banned from making movies.

    Thoughts:

    - You do silence well, Phelous.

    - Kid gets his neck crushed by a window pane... impressive. Lady killed by medicine cabinet mirror... more impressive.

    - Isn't it time to come out of the closet? Oh, wait, one more movie.

    Good review.
