Mister Creep

The Trailer Is The ONLY Way To Watch This Movie, and Let YOUR Imagination Complete It. Then, It Won't Be Written By a Moron. LOL!

Pretty Much EVERY Event In This Movie Is Based On Police Leaving ALL The Evidence and Files Behind, When a Station Closes.

Does That Let You Know How WELL WRITTEN This Movie Was, By An Intelligent Human Being?

And Like ALL Found Footage Movies, We Are FORCED To Listen To The DUMBEST Women Willing To Never Stop Talking and Constantly Ask Questions a 5 Year Old Knows The Answers To. LOL!

And Finally. Mister Creep Looks The Way He Does, Because a Clown Mask Was Melted To His Face? AND He Got Married and Had Kids, WHILE Looking Like This?

Quality, Intelligent Writer's and Filmmaker's Are a Thing Of The Past. This Movie, Like EVERYTHING Now, Is Obviously Made By The Average Person, Who Was Raised On Movies and TV, NEVER Actually Living and Gaining Common Sense Or Knowledge.

Ignorant, Unrealistic Crap Is NOW All We Get. Like This.

I'm a sucker for found footage stuff and typically I do not hold certain low budget elements against a film such as bad acting or mediocre effects or props. This film doesn't have that issue. It's biggest issue is that it's painfully cliche.

From the pointless interrogation tape of Mr. Creep to the clearly deranged old lady with the serial killer obsession you can't help but cringe or go "Oh come on" constantly at every dumb little sequence that has either been done so many times before in better movies or relies too much on the characters being incredibly stupid, it's as if they live in an alternate universe where they've never seen any movies, read any books, or learned anything at all about things like "stranger danger".

While researching a missing person's case, a group of student filmmakers stumble across an urban legend involving a mysterious figure known as Mister Creep and begin investigating the story, leading them into a deadly conspiracy with a supernatural figure that will put them all at risk.

Overall, this was a pretty enjoyable if somewhat flawed effort. When it works best is the engrossing setup that manages to provide this one with the kind of small-town lore that would believably set these events in motion. The early portion here focuses on the team's means of finding work in the film industry and trying to keep a job going in that regard leads to the decision to switch over to the missing person's case and eventually turns into the early setup of the figure haunting the area. Getting the brief bits we do about his psychological make-up with the clown mask, the mysterious nature of his summoning ritual with the static-filled TV signal, and the interrogation video that sheds a lot of light on the personality of the figure quite nicely. As well, the episodic nature of how this is presented allows the film to ramp up the intensity and scares as it goes along feels rather nice. The visit to the police station he was reportedly kept at that results in their friend going missing while the eerie visit to the sympathetic writer offers the kind of startling scares that go hand-in-hand with the type of psychological torment featured here. The finale on the abandoned farm is the best part with the killers' appearance at various spots throughout the location serving up some decent jump-scares and providing some genuinely chilling scenes when a series of double-crosses are revealed that bring about a gruesome finish to it all. These manage to give it some likable features as there isn't much wrong with this one but it does have some minor issues. The biggest drawback to the film is the film's reliance on the abundance of cliches familiar within the found-footage genre. With the characters hurtling themselves into obviously dangerous territory with nothing for protection, a proclivity to film stuff that has no business being recorded due to the safety of human life at stake, and believing that splitting up is a good idea among a seemingly endless list of other features, it finds itself running on the familiar and unlikable ground rather easily making it relatively easy to miss a lot of the positive factors when you're complaining about it trotting out the usual irritating tropes. The other drawback to this one concerns several other blunders made in the filmmaking presentation that belie its found-footage origins almost as much as its storyline drawbacks. Despite it presenting the various chapters rather organically throughout here, these would not be present if the footage was genuinely found and offered as such since that would require post-production editing to insert into the running time. As well, the interrogation scenes that are shown here give us clues to his personality and mindset feel completely at odds with what's going on as the scenes are taken from the actual police cameras rather than a more logical viewing solution like being watched on TV so it also hinders the illusion quite a bit. These factors are what hold this down.

Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Language and Violence.

Mister Creep absolutely delivers on the creep factor! This is my second time watching it, and honestly, I liked it even more this time around. Yes, the acting is pretty terrible-way overdone and exaggerated-but that's kind of expected with a low-budget film and amateur actors. Normally, I can still appreciate the effort despite the bad acting, but this one really pushed the limits. That said, the shaky foundation of the backstory didn't stop the overall plot from being pretty solid. Mister Creep and his eerie jingle bell doll are unforgettable-those chilling bells are bound to haunt my dreams! Despite its flaws, the film manages to create a fantastic, unnerving atmosphere. If you're a fan of found footage horror, this one is definitely worth a watch!

Found footage is a very hit and miss sub-genre. The best films it has produced are absolutely incredible and are as pure horror as you can possibly get. When they get them wrong though they can be incredibly dull and unfulfilling. You're always taking a bit of a risk when you choose one to watch. 'Mister Creep' I'm pleased to say was a well made found footage horror film.

The film knows what it is. It's only just over an hour, so it has to get in, get pretty quickly to the point and do its thing. It does just that. There are a couple of truly brilliant jump scares in this movie that got me good. They were extremely well disguised for one thing. If you have that friend who always likes to predict when a jump-scare is coming, they're not going to see these ones coming. And they are leap out of your seat moments.

The movie also does a great job of finding creepy settings for each scene. Old abandoned police stations and random houses in the middle of the woods work so well. And it feels like it is always night time when they are in these places which amplifies the eeriness.

I had a good time with this film. It held my attention and was pretty damn creepy for the duration of the run time. 7.5/10.
