Attending a college with her friends, a young woman finds that her friends are being stalked by a demented figure from her nightmares, and once she gets them to believe her story sets out to find a way to stop it from claiming more lives around the campus.This was a solid if slightly flawed effort. One of the finer points of this one is the fact that there's quite a lot of work done here to really sell the idea of the creature and it's prowess. This one still manages to fulfill the idea of the exploitation of their personal fears which gives this one some rather enjoyable scenes here, from the incredibly fun opening attack in the girl's house where she gets attacked by the spirit and is followed up by the different freak-outs on the campus while she's visiting her friend, the actual attack later on where the creature appears unexpectedly while the victim is unaware of the creature behind her as she's on the phone, the crazy sequence of her friend seeing the creature while in the middle of a drug session and ends up confronting his biggest fear when the creature traps him inside the chest. The fact that this one also sets up her premonitions into what's coming up later as the lone visions she has turn out to be coming true which makes for a rather fun time once they do manage to emerge with the vision of the air-duct murder, the massacre in the dorm and the later attack in the laundry room further this one incredibly well as there's a spectacular connection between the two setups here. Since both work hand-in-hand to make the film about the creatures' need for pop-culture belief and the more power it derives due to that, this one manages to readily feature not only a great central killer but also gives this plenty of chilling and suspenseful scenes. Given that these scenes focus on a genuinely creepy and scary figure that is kept live-action for its scenes which allows for some spectacular make-up work not only on the titular killer but also the fantastically bloody and brutal killings, which all manage to give this one a lot to really like overall here. There's not much to dislike here, most of which revolves around the rather incessant inability to believe what's going on as there are plenty of scenes here that showcase something going on around the school yet this one going on for as long as it does with the idea of her being crazy. This goes on way too long to be effective and seems way too obvious it's being done simply to keep the storyline going. As well, the finale is way too clichéd and pulls out too many expected moments that really lower the effectiveness of the setup. These here are what hold this one down.Rated R: Graphic Violence, Graphic Language, Full Nudity and drug use.

I watched "Boogeyman 3" without having seen the previous 2, although they are in my collection. So I had no expectations to the movie, and I had little clue what it was all about. And it seemed that you didn't really need to have watched the first two movies to be in the loop."Boogeyman 3" is not rich on shocks, creepy moments or scares, though I have a decent enough amount of gore in it. I found this to be a rather dull movie for a horror movie. I wasn't thoroughly entertained and I sure wasn't feeling any sense of dread.The story told in this movie, well it was a bit weak and there were some gaps in the overall flow of the story. But it did manage to pull through and close up nicely enough.Not being familiar with the boogeyman from the previous two movies, I found the make up to actually be quite nice. He looked sinister enough, especially the face. However, and I must point this out, the noises he made, what was up with that? They were more of a hilarious thing than a scary thing. That really didn't work well for the movie. And why would he be chasing people when he can apparently just appear from any shadow or dark place? What was the point of chasing the tail of people? For shocking and scaring the people, sure. But if you think about it, it really made no sense.The effects and CGIs in "Boogeyman 3" were good enough, and I liked what I saw. The blood, however, was a tad too red. But other than that, good enough job.As for the acting and the people starring in this movie. I found most people to actually do a good enough job with their roles. Nothing award-winning here, but still good for a horror movie of this caliber.If the "Boogeyman" series is an attempt at a slasher like Jason Voorhees or Freddy Krueger, then it is not much of a memorable character they have as the killer. There is nothing iconic about this boogeyman, sorry to say.For a horror movie, "Boogeyman 3" came off quite weak, and there are lots of other horror movies out there far better. Now that I have seen it, I can honestly say that I will not pick it up and watch it again. I will, however, watch part 1 and 2, just for the sake of having seen them.

The boogeyman lives in closets, that's the urban legend in the US. Over here he lives under your bed and in other countries it's also somewhere else. What I mean is, the boogeyman is everywhere and curses anyone that crosses his destiny. And so all movies with boogeyman in it were cursed. From the first one in the eighties unto today nobody really liked them. Or they were cursed with poor effects, or with sad CGI. But number 3 in the franchise, is the best of them. Again it is a mix between CGI and at last a real person. And that makes it all a bit creepier. to compare it with the first one, there is already T&A in the first minutes and there is already blood too, two things we missed in the first part. And there is a lot of blood. Sometimes gallons of the red stuff flows on screen. They even put a bit of gore in it. A bit of lack of suspense in the storyline but it's a good starter for an entertaining evening.

I really doesn't find any sense in this movie the BoogeyMan is a belief or what ? i don't know why they make it again and again, a 90 minute waste, this movie has nothing which belongs to Horror neither the script defines the clarity of the concept of BoogeyMan plus no connection with the past sequel is projected . Some of the sound effects are not synchronized with the time line of the movie i don't know what people like in this movie. However the actors really tried their best but they land up in a failure, the direction must in a way which keeps you glued to your seats with some sluggish camera work and screenplay the story seems to be stuck at many places.A total disaster, silly piece of horror or you can simply say "A 90 Minute Trash"
