Dir. Stephen T. Kay, 2005
Review by Large Gremlin

Horrible Sam Gaymi produced crap that is his second movie on Ghost
House Productions after his slightly better debut, the US version of
"Ju-On", aka "The Grudge". BoogieMan again tries to emulate The
Ring and while it has a creepy setting and some good effects, they
forgot to make a plot, and all the viewer manages to get is a
bunch of jumbled images that have no meaning and nothing gets
explained whatsoever. The other main problem is that there is nothing
scary either - the movie is all mood/setting, but the scares are
non-existent, and there is no gore or violence at all. A lame twist
exists in the middle of the film that Corky could have predicted, and
there are no known stars in it at all. The two supposedly "hot
girls" in the film alarmingly look like Julian Sands and Giovanni
Ribisi respectively. Disappointing crap. Had potential.
