Imaginary review

  


You'd think with a title like Imaginary this horror movie would be full of creative scares and wonderfully tense moments. Well you'd mistaken as Imaginary is one of the most boringly dull movies I've seen in quite some time. From the get go it just isn't scary and it takes so long to really get to the point that when it does the movie is over 15 mins later. The story follows a family who move into the step-mom's old fmaily home. Trying to begin a relationship with her new step daughters but failing things take a sisniter turn when stuff begins to happen without explination around the house all culminating in a battle for survival from a demonic like entity that prays on children's creativity and longing for companionship. 

Coming from Blumhouse you'd expect Imaginary to be somewhat decent but then you realize that this is from the director of Truth or Dare AND Fantasy Island and right away it's evident that this is not going to be pretty. And while it isn't there is some genuinely good moments here in particular the last 15 mins or so like I mentioned but it just takes so long to get to that point you will have fallen asleep from bordem or just totally tuned out waiting for it to just end.


Performance wise it's all fine, nothing too bad or amazing and as for the demonic monster it's design is so outlandish and ridiciouls almost coming off as a like a giant muppet like creature it's actually pretty silly. Imaginary is a big swing a and a miss from Blumhouse which is sad to see. 2024 has not been great to horror movies thus far let's hope it can pick up soon.
