My quick rating - 5.9/10. This flick is a solid supernatural horror film that taps into our dependence on technology while delivering effective jump scares and eerie tension. Directed by Jacob Chase, the film follows Oliver (Azhy Robertson), a lonely nonverbal boy who uses a phone and tablet for assisted speech. His devices become the gateway for something sinister—an entity named Larry, a monstrous figure lurking within a mysterious digital story called Misunderstood Monsters. One of the film’s strengths is its atmosphere. The use of screens and augmented reality to introduce Larry is clever, making technology itself feel like a looming threat. The jump scares are well-executed, relying more on timing and suspense rather than cheap tactics. Larry’s design is unsettling, with his elongated limbs and shadowy presence adding to the creeping dread. Beyond the horror, Come Play also carries a subtle yet poignant message about loneliness and the way society treats those who are different. The film not so subtly hints that it isn’t children who struggle to accept differences—it’s often the parents. This underlying theme gives the story a bit more depth, even as it plays with familiar supernatural tropes. While the premise is strong, the film does have some drawbacks. The pacing drags in certain moments, and the reliance on horror clichés sometimes makes it predictable. However, the central performances—especially from Robertson as Oliver—help keep the emotional core intact. Overall, it is an effective horror film that delivers creepy visuals and solid scares while offering a thoughtful take on isolation and human connection. It may not break new ground, but it successfully blends supernatural horror with real-world anxieties, making it a worthwhile watch for fans of modern creature features.
