Undescribable Perfection

Pretty Good

Absolutely the worst movie.

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

Where did it all go wrong? Blast!Slenderman has limitless potential as a film but after Slender (2016) I started to fear it was potential that would never be met.The first 15 minutes or so of The Slender Man had me gripped, this was well made and genuinely scary stuff. Truly scary and I don't say that very often.Then to my horror it all fell apart and this movie which I was beginning to think was going to turn into something special turned into another found footage film and an utter mess.The plot makes little sense, the pacing is disastrous and all the magic from the start of the film flickers down to nothing.I believe Slender Man will get a great film one day (Or has one already I haven't seen) this however is not that film.The Good:Genuinely scary in placesThe Bad:No rhyme or reason why people are recording most of the timePoor audio balancingIncoherent plotFront cover makes him look like a gothic Koro-senseiThings I Learnt From This Movie:If you're going to kidnap children, doing it during the day in the middle of the street seems like a good call

I won't say anything about the plot because I think this type of film has more effect if you know nothing about it. I will say this tho, I was scared. I had to watch a lot of it through my fingers. It's very suspenseful and has a few scares. The story is good (i didn't expect much of one) and the acting is pretty decent. The effects of the The Slender Man were pretty surprising for such a low budget film. If you're a fan of Handycam movies then i'm sure this one won't disappoint. It looks very much like the game which also i found rather scary. You only get brief glimpses of The Slender Man but quite often it made me jump. If you're a horror fan like me then i'm sure you'd find it worth a watch.

the slender man as I understand is an urban myth, prior to watching this movie I have watched a series of youtube videos of this phenomenon which attempted to turn a fictional idea into an amateur movie experience. this film adaptation of the urban legend starts off in quite a disorganised way, no real character identification or initiation. I know that in these sorts of films they throw out the rule book in favour of it seeming like found footage. but i'd like it to be pulled together in a better way, you don't really feel anything for the cast, there's nothing where we get to know the people involved.generally I think the found footage style of film needs to evolve, or at least it could evolve. why not take advantage of modern trends, like vloging or mobile phone footage? this movie is part of a horror genre that to me feels like its going a little stale despite apparent high interest. sometimes I feel a lot of these films don't really do much more than what blair witch and the last broadcast did over 10 years ago (these were both great films btw) unlike those films this one fails to build tension as competently. it does provide scares and the odd jump, but not a lot. the script ,acting and story is pretty sub par, the personalities all feel a little flat, there isn't enough mystery,atmosphere and intrigue for my liking and the plot seems to jump about with little cohesion. the only plus side to it that I can identify is the special effects which seem pretty good for a budget film.

A solid attempt at making a horror film about an urban legend called Slender Man (first time I heard about it, but it sounds kind of intriguing). I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the special effects used for depicting the Slender Man. Yes, he appears very briefly on screen, but looks well made (this is an extremely low-budget movie, so I wasn't expecting him to appear at all). The rest of the movie was just your standard "found footage" horror, unremarkable and mostly dull, only slightly more interesting toward the end.Can't say I would recommend this to anyone but hardcore fans of "found footage" horror movies like The Blair Witch Project. It's mostly boring and acting is unconvincing, but considering it's very low production standards, it could have been worse.
