The Boogeyman
It's not real. It's not real. It's not real.
Directed by Rob Savage
Produced by 21 Laps Entertainment, 20th Century Studios
A grief-haunted supernatural horror that uses a malevolent presence to externalize the family's emotional trauma, balancing genuine scares with the weight of unprocessed loss.
Still reeling from the tragic death of their mother, a teenage girl and her younger sister find themselves plagued by a sadistic presence in their house and struggle to get their grieving father to pay attention before it’s too late.
