Movies like The Boogeyman

“The Boogeyman (2023) is a United States 2020s psychological-horror that constrains action inside a suburban interior. Its formal argument stages grief as a spatial economy using chiaroscuro lighting, axial cuts, and shot/reverse-shot restraint to map attention and denial. The film therefore functions as a formal study of familial inattention and the cinematic means by which private trauma acquires an external threat.”
