Day 16Reflections on: The Boy (2016)Wow. Full disclosure: I watched this via Netflix Party aka Teleparty with a bunch of very funny comedians and we all roasted this movie in the chat. If you’re going to watch this I recommend you do the same.A woman is hired as a nanny but the titular boy is actually a doll. Is it a haunted ghost doll? Maybe??? This movie felt illegal.It must have been SO cheap to make. IMDb estimates that the budget was 10 million dollars but that seems impossible. There are virtually no effects, no music, very few actors, and only one location!The main character is seen frequently flipping through a magazine. It’s always the same issue. I looked it up and apparently it is a computer and video games magazine originating in the Czech Republic. This was not good or scary but it was very funny and ridiculous. Shockingly this movie has a sequel starring Katie Holmes. Oh jeez now I guess I have to watch that too. -- source link
