    Had Low Expectations...
    Despite the mostly negative reviews this movie has gotten, I still wanted to see it. Anybody who feels that way, please keep in mind that it's more of a thriller/suspense than a horror movie. The puppet, clown looking thing does put some supernatural horror into the plot but it's not what you think. I enjoyed it and I would definitely give it a try when it's on one of your subscription channels for free.
