Following the tragic passing of his wife, Craig (looking like a Temu CM Punk) and his mute daughter move into a new home to escape the traumatic memories that have turned him into a depressed daddy and his girl into a silent Susan. A new start is hindered when it appears that there is something awful in the home and it has set its malevolent sights on the little lady of the house. Professionals tell the father that it’s just a manifestation of her grief and the terrible trauma she has undergone concerning the suicide of her mother but we know that their is definitely some creepy entity sticking to the shadows. Craig has strange dreams where he somehow fails at walking convincingly and wanders around the woods topless as some “spooky” voice makes threats, cryptic advice is spewed out and his daughter is claimed by the thing she’s been drawing in all her pictures. Dad’s frustration makes him act like an asshole and the poor mute girl just has to look on as he makes a fool of himself. Nightmare conversations with his dead wife, nightmare conversations with his bitchy sister, nightmare conversations with the nightmare entity and nightmare runtime in which all of this can play out. Drama handled by humans who should not be anywhere near dramatics have everyone sounding like they just learned what emotions are and may not exactly be comfortable with the kind of speech found on planet Earth. The boogeyman looks like a broke Full Moon fan cosplaying the bundled up form of the goon from Castle Freak. There’s a couple laughs because it comes off like a theatrical interpretation of The Babadook put on by the teenage residents of a head trauma ward who have never seen the movie and have only been told what the film represents.
