The Boogey Man. 1980.

I'm sure we have all seen this film more than once, one daft question why is Willy scared of mirrors when his sister witnessed him going full Michael Myers on their mother's abusive boyfriend, even the director paid homage to the start of the film.

This has always been a enjoyable film with it's pacing, some tight tense moments, decent kills, probably back then it may have had people on the edge of their seat but nowadays it may be a bit tame and John Carradine in a small but decent role. Suzanne Love does do her best as the lead actress and Nicholas Love (yes they are siblings) as her mute brother who does go a bit nuts in the barn while being chatted up by Catherine Tambini, you got admit the ending was good and the house almost resembling the one on 112 Ocean Avenue was a good touch to the film.
