Trivia
On May 31, 2014, in Waukesha, Wisconsin, 12-year-olds Anissa E. Weier and Morgan E. Geyser lured their friend Payton Leutner into the woods and stabbed her 19 times in an attempt to impress the fictional character Slender Man. This movie uses this case as a basis for the Mercy Black character.

Nothing Happens

This movie is so slow it is almost unbearable. Every scene turns out to be a let down. Actually, if you want a bad horror to judge other horror films off of, this one is great for that.
