I was really looking forward to this one, Lauren Cohen is in it and it just looked really creepy. And it was pretty freaking scary for about two thirds of the movie. Then, it kind of lost me with the swerve they pulled. I didn't hate it, but I thought it could have been better. Maybe I'm too hard on movies today? I don't know. I just think a consistent story from beginning to end isn't too much to ask. Not bad, but not great. Some good scares.

I don't want to spoil the movie for anyone that is going to watch it, but anyone that does will probably go WTF? at the same point that I did. Started off a really creepy and genuinely scary ghost story, I thought. Then, kind of made me mad. Still a worthwhile watch, not shitting on the movie at all, just felt like they ran out of steam and said let's go this route.

It was bad. Absolutely nothing original or interesting about it. I did enjoy Lauren Cohan though.

lol, films usually have a tell. we can usually sniff out the crap. I pass on so many horror films at the stores. i saw this one at fye and knew right away. i mean this cover does nothing for me. and why call it "the boy"? i haven't seen it but i'm sure there's a more defined title in there somewhere than just "a boy"

"Deformed Kid Hiding In The Wall" was too long a title is my guess.

I still liked it, thought it was good until the point that you realize it's not a haunted doll. Downhill from there for me.
