Darkness Falls definitely holds up. It's like if Freddy Kreuger was the tooth fairy. She was burned in a fire so her skin is sensitive to light. That opening scene and the lighthouse scene are the strongest but the moments inbetween really hold it together.

I will say something postive about this movie is that they had a lot of creative ways to scare off the bogeyman. Using the refrigerator lights to scare him off and during the tv scene where the child uses flashes from the video game to try to see what is going on around.

[@zacharybare6967]

I liked Smile but I would have preferred if the monster had been defeated in that scene and the curse had changed from having to kill someone/yourself in front of someone else to transfer it it could transfer through other trauma if close enough. Like when the sister said her son was traumatized from the party I was hoping they would do that and then a sequel would be the now cured main character trying to save her nephew while her sister thinks she is still insane

[@Aiur]

These are common horror tropes

[@MosesSuppose]

I was snuck into Boogeyman 2005 in theaters by an older brother when I was like 10 and was traumatized for years. Watched it again recently, boy howdy is that a bad movie

[@martuut.9404]

My older brother bought it on DVD and played it for me, I was also freaked out and had it in memory till now. Yeah, nowadays it's just another crap. Still, I was traumatised by many horror movies that I watched after sneaking into brother's room, I guess he didn't even realize that once I went to my bed I was usually shitting my pants and crying. Oh the memories

[@theyoungmessiah420]

The scene where he rips his heart out had me haunted for a while until I recently rewatched it. it is indeed crap xD

[@snarkasticdouche3863]

I mean... I was a little older when I saw that movie... I remember finding the ending quite corny, how he ends up fighting off the Boogeyman. But there were actually some really freaky scenes in that movie. Like the robe propped up on the baseball bat literally turning into the boogeyman in the dark during the opening scene. Then how the bat clatters down to the ground when he switches on the lamp. It's playing with a common fear pretty much everyone has experienced at one point in life. Also, how the little girl in the clinic that he was in as a child was screaming her lungs out, even though the room was brightly lit. Then we see that she was so scared by a tiny patch of darkness showing through a misaligned ceiling pannel. Something about that was really unnerving.

[@kacklerot]

The Boogyman tale that was popular here in the US came from the conviction of a serial killer named Albert Fish. The word before that time period came from the word Bogeyman which was a hobgoblin monster. The word Bogeyman probably came from the word bugge or bogge which was middle English for "a frightening spectre". The serial killer origin is really disturbing to read about so I know why they would have called him the boogyman. He was the most deranged and evil individual I have ever heard of.

[@DrStrangefate]

Between him and Gilles de Rais yeah...seriously fucked up

[@chances3163]

wasn't he the guy who shoved needles up his urethra?

Yea. It didn’t come from Albert fish. So just use what it came from. It’s been used for a lot of people and monsters.

​@@Plplj164 I'm just sharing what I think is neat. I'm not writing an essay. I already explained the origin of the word. For the American people it's why we still use the word boogeyman.

Inspiration? It was basically a rip off.

That's when I chimed in from the back of the theater and yelled "DAMN SONIC!", which cracked up the teenage boy sitting next to me lol Then girl A threw a random mans drink on girl B..then they slapped for a bit with some tasteful name calling of course, then they left.
