Now, dont get me wrong this isnt a movie thats going to win awards or redefine the genre.
Its not high-quality in the way you’d expect from critically acclaimed horror flicks.
Heres why I think Mr. Crocket is worth a watch onHuluthis Halloween.
But sometimes, I need a fresh, unexpected watch that still packs a punch.
Within the first five minutes, Mr. Crocket proved it was exactly that.
Much of the movie explores how Mr. Crocket manages to pull off his kidnappings.
Its like a disturbing mashup of Freddy Krueger and Mr. Rogers, but way creepier.
Out of everything though, and the biggest reason this movie works, is Elvis Nolasco.
His performance as Mr. Crocket is hands-down the strongest part of the whole thing.
Hes so disturbingly good that I started feeling uneasy every time he showed up on screen.
Hes what keeps the movie from sliding into forgettable territory.
That didnt stop me from enjoying the hell out of it.
The movie doesnt venture to be deep.
Instead, it just goes all-in on the bloody, gory fun.
Mr. Crocket currently holds a 67% rating onRotten Tomatoesfrom 15 reviews.
Personally, I would rate it higher just for being a solid Halloween movie.
Espys directorial debut is a fun nightmare slasher with a real emotional core.
As someone who loves anything horror, Mr. Crocket gets a solid yes from me.
