Butcher, Baker, Nightmare Maker Ratings & Reviews

  • Burnharm3d ago
    Butcher, Baker, Nightmare Maker is a decent scary‑movie watch, mainly because the plot reveals are timed well enough to keep you guessing. Beyond the mystery and the tension, there isn’t much that really sticks, but it’s entertaining enough for a one‑off viewing.
  • Rob MacKinnon7d ago
    Aunt Cheryl may be the most terrifying monster in the history of cinema.
