Big horror buff, just see my activity, and I appreciate all forms of horror. Funny, sad, violent, mind games, splatter etc. etc. and I really wanted to love this as a popcorn splatterfest but it fell short of even my lukewarm expectations. The kills were fun but rushed. The dark comedy for whatever reason just didn’t seem to fit the film. I also love most of Osgood Perkins work (Blackcoat and Long Legs). Just fell short. Do I recommend it as a couch watch? Sure, but don’t expect much.
Premise, a cursed toy monkey kills randomly every-time you turn the crank on it. Pretty simple.
