From the mind of Stephen King and the producers of “Stranger Things,” the people at 20th Century Studios sure know how to hook horror fans. The studio has unveiled the trailer for the upcoming 2023 film “The Boogeyman,” which stars Sophie Thatcher and Vivien Lyra Blair as two sisters being terrorized by a sinister entity. The question arises, is it real or are the neglected siblings manifesting it from their disturbed minds?
Horror fans will recognize Vivien Lyra from her role as the little girl in “Bird Box,” while Sophie Thatcher has starred in the 2016 horror series “The Exorcist.” The cast looks fantastic, and the trailer is filled with just the right amount of creepy moments to keep fans intrigued in the story. A lot of parts were reminiscent of similar themed horror movies like “The Babadook” and “It”, so it remains to be seen if “The Boogeyman” will surprise viewers with a familiar tale in new wrapping.
