I feel that The Boogeyman delivered exactly what it promised. Are you afraid of the dark or worried about what lurks in the shadows? Fret not, this movie can help you conquer those fears. Let’s just take my granddaughter as an example, she’s ten years old and won’t sleep without a nightlight. I believe that is the exact target audience this movie wants to provide chills and thrills. They nailed it. Before the first ten minutes were over she had already thrown the shared armrest up and promptly situated herself onto my lap. There were a ton of jumping out of your seat and spilling your popcorn moments. My granddaughter sure did.
I liked all the acting; everyone did a fine enough job. What deserves some attention is the soundtrack. They played such ominous and foreboding music that besides jumping throughout the whole movie, my feisty granddaughter covered her ears a number of times. I feel like I need to clarify that my granddaughter is a daredevil. She likes being scared, just as long as one of us adults are nearby.

I’m giving this movie a B. It’s not an A list for sure, but it fits a B to a tee. Have fun and enjoy some spooky time.
Grade: B
About The Peetimes: I’ve got 2 great Peetimes for you. Although hard to do, I was able to find these moments keeping you from missing any of the great shock scenes.
What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
Brilliant idea with great information
I’ve been using RunPee for a few years now and it’s basically a requirement of going to the movies for me. The best part of course are the “pee times” that give you cues, synopses and times for when you can pee without missing the most important parts of the movie. There is also information about the credits- length, extras and if there are any extra scenes at the wayyy end. Super helpful to just know that it is or isn’t worth staying. There is a timer function that will buzz your phone when it’s a good time to pee. I also appreciate that the app is very conscientious about it being an app you use in a theater- dark background, all silent alarms etc. I will always enjoy the experience of the theater even if I could watch things at home- but I’ve even used it at home to check for things like after credit scenes or other information too.

RunPee.com owes RunPee Sis a huge debt of gratitude. She sees any movie needed with no complaints and has done so for ten years (even basing Thanksgiving and Christmas family festivities around the seeing films). In 2015 Sis ran the entire RunPee enterprise herself, while RunPee Dan, Jilly and Mom went traipsing off to Europe. Sis is the spider in the web holding the RunPee family together — besides being a funny, well rounded person, and a joyous pleasure to be around. Her favorite films start and end with horror (which thank goodness she’s happy to see, since most of us don’t have the stomach for it) — but also likes silly comedies, sad dramas, and musicals of all types. If you’ve used a Peetime for a scary film, you probably have RunPee Sis to thank for it.
Favorite movie genre: Horror, horror, and more horror. The more disturbing, the better. Period.
