About this movie

When Oliver, a solitary autistic boy comes across a creepy children's story on his new tablet, he has no idea that by reading the tale of Larry, a lonely monster, also desperate for friends, he is inviting him into his home. But what Larry really wants is something far more dangerous... This dark and twisted horror story starring Gillian Jacobs and John Gallagher Jr. from the studio that brought you The Girl On The Train and The Turning offers a fresh new take on the horror genre that will leave you afraid to turn off the lights!

This is a very different movie than I was expecting, in a good way! It's a "horror" movie with heart & soul, very emotional with plenty of creepy unsettling moments & atmosphere. The demon is extremely well done with cgi & very scary, strong plot & fantastic acting, especially from the young cast. Oliver is so endearing, i couldn't help but fall in love with him - everyone is likeable in this, essential in a horror movie if you're going to feel empathy for the cast. Loved it!

No idea why this film has such high ratings. It isn't the worst film you'll watch but it's got a very slow build-up and not at all frightening. Almost like a kids horror.

I thought it is a good enough horror film to watch last year
