I'll keep this one pretty short - Slender Man is shit.

It's boring. It's desperately low on tension and any real scares. It has extremely under developed characters. It has a shoddy script. It's bollocks.

Not scary
Almost DOA
Amazingly I haven't seen the original so can't compare them. I didn't expect much from this and it turned out pretty much by the numbers. It starts ok and nice to see a small role for Kiefer Sutherland. However there is a real lack of tension or scares in the second half of the film. It could have raised the stakes in many ways but stays in the middle ground.

The Wicked King was a phenomenal follow up to The Cruel Prince. The tension between Jude and Carden is even tighter and the stakes are higher. The ending will leave you breathless and wanting more.

The tension
Very good
Bullock does a great job as the sole actor of the movie for a good chunk. I also love that you see two people the entire movie. Very cool.

"I love how this song always feels like it's on the edge of dissonance somehow, it's got such a beautiful sound but melodically there's this tension all the way through the verses that's really satisfying."

A good film, well made, based on a true story. Just a pity there isn't a little more action or tension. The subject might be a tad boring for some and the film is very slowly paced.

High tension and a really unique story.
I'm really glad that I followed the advice about what going into this book completely blind except from what I read in the dust jacket.


Seriously don't read anything about this book just read the book!


 Lauren James plays on the sense of panic and stress so well that I felt like I was right there with Romy the entire time. The tension through out the whole book is just so high that I was just waiting for it to snap the whole time.

Great to see in 4dx
Was fairly skeptical of this movie thout it might just be another sharknado but it was actually pretty good.

Totally worth watching in 4dx if you can or 3d at the very least as it makes the tension scenes soo much better.

Without spoiling it for everyone I quite liked the twist of the origins of the shark and the fact that it makes you think about all the things that we still don't know about our planet.
