Ulli Lommel directed a couple of trashy low budget horror films in the '80s called Boogeyman and Boogeyman II; the first was OK, but the second was a virtually unwatchable mess. Boogeyman (2005) and its second sequel, Boogeyman 3 (I skipped Part 2), have nothing in common with Lommel's films except for that, like his utterly diabolical sequel, they also suck big time.The main problem with Boogeyman 3 is that there is zero consistency in the actions of the titular creature. Sometimes it will suddenly appear and then disappear; sometimes it will creep up behind someone, and then disappear; occasionally, it will grab them, pulling them into the shadows, only to let them go; and sometimes it will kill them. What tactic the creature uses depends entirely on whether director Gary Jones intends to make the viewer jump, creep them out, or shock them (although nine time out of ten, he achieves none of these, his cheap scare tactics and excess of CG effects rarely having the desired effect).Furthermore, the film fails to stick to its mythos: supposedly, if you fear the boogeyman, it has more power over you, and yet several of its victims are those who do not believe that the creature exists. None of this makes any sense and proves extremely irritating.2/10, just for the eye candy, especially Nikki Sanderson as Audrey, who provides the film's only nudity early on, and the two cuties at the end, who lounge around together in their underwear (as most men like to think all college girls do).

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 happen to watch BOOGEYMAN 3 on a movie channel and right off the bat I realized that I was watching a terrible combo of 3 classic horror films: SUSPIRIA, A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET and the Texas Chainsaw Massacre Part 2 (1986). The film starts with a hysterical girl who stays at a friend's room. Like the beginning of SUSPIRIA, the hysterical girl is terrified of everything around her, feels she's being pursued and eventually is confronted by a malefic being. The entire scene was so reminiscent of SUSPIRIA (minus the style of course) that I was having a severe case of deja vu. But as it went along, the tormented girl is attacked by the boogeyman while talking on a live radio show with her cell phone, which is identical to the plot point in Tobe Hooper's underrated Texas Chainsaw Massacre Part 2. And this was just the set-up at the beginning, so it was downhill after that as it followed the very familiar horror template set up by A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET. The entire film was terrible. Clichéd to the nth degree: the few male actors are dispatched quickly and then the rest of the film is spent on tormenting the bad actresses, huh, the female characters for our viewing pleasure. The girls are often in state of undress and such juvenile moments that will get 12 year olds excited. The film even ends with two anonymous girls stripping down to their underwear in their dorm room before the silly looking boogeyman makes a predictable appearance.No style, no shocks, no suspense, no originality, no logic. There's even a "horror" scene which takes place in the laundromat room, which we've have seen a million times in films like PULSE. With films like this, the horror genre is all but dead.
