Taylor Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 ^ Fair point, it looks like they acquired it before production. But Wadlow co-wrote the script so I'm sure it's not great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krissykins Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Yeh, if a Blumhouse film is being released by any other studio, you know Universal passed. They have had a first look deal for 10 years now, which actually runs out this summer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxofficerules Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Hard to believe this is out tonight, the buzz seems non existent. There are no reviews on rotten tomatoes and it's taking a slaughtering on Letterboxd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krissykins Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 It’s got a goofiness to it. And the dialogue is really heavy handed and obvious. But it actually has about 4-5 good scares in it, and a twist I didn’t see coming. Would be good gateway horror for youngsters. Much better than Night Swim.

Krissykins Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 6 minutes ago, AMCTheater2000 said: $12 million budget LA Times, THR and Deadline are reporting $10m budget. So I guess it’s $10-12m. They did well to keep it so low. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePhasmid Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 The director's history with Blumhouse leaves much to be desired. I guess it's a low budget risk with medium size reward for him. Meanwhile, still waiting to see any updates for Leigh Whannell's Upgrade property. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asyulus Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 There’s apparently a single f-bomb in the IMDB parents guide of Imaginary. Who gets to yell the f-bomb? Spoiler The little girl after she pricks her finger to a sharp nail? Or the bear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAJK Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 This and Night Swim were about the same quality-wise for me. Ugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoiler I don’t think they did, the bear doesn’t have his own voice, he speaks through the little girl. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic Draper Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 (edited) This was a huge step up for Wadlow from his previous blumhouse films. I went in expecting a 0/10 and came away thinking it's a 3/10. It has a couple story beats and scenes that surprised me in a good way. It's still bad, and forgettable. But i came away thinking that was a generic film with an okay concept that had some potential if a talented director had made it instead of thinking I have lost my faith in humanity that film was so bad like his last 2.
