TRIGGER WARNINGS TO BE AWARE OF
There are flashing lights, loud sounds, and there are many jump scares, so if viewers have any personal issues and or medical conditions that will clash with these I do not recommend you watching this unless you yourself feel that you can.
WAS THAT THE BITE OF 87? Or just the new Five Nights at Freddy’s (FNAF) movie that came out in theaters Oct. 27? FNAF is a horror movie, game, and book series that was first created in 2014 by Scott Cawthon. Cawthon got the idea for Five Nights at Freddy’s based on criticism of his previous game, Chipper & Sons Lumber Co; reviewers complained of its unintentionally frightening characters that had animatronic-like movement, inspiring Cawthon to create an intentionally scarier experience.
FNAF features a security guard named Mike who begins to work at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria since he lost his recent job due to having problems controlling his temper, caused by some mysterious recurring dream/nightmare. Mike then gets the job and his first couple of nights seem to go pretty well until the nights start to seem a bit odd, and the animatronics are beginning to act differently.
I felt that the music was phenomenal, the introduction was what really reeled me in. It has this sense of “eerily mysteriousness to it” that seems almost hypnotic. The movie’s storyline and pace was really good. I loved the fact that they stayed somewhat “along with lines with the lore.” The way they portrayed the animatronics in a childlike sense made you feel more drawn to them. The movie ended in a way that made you on the edge of your seat due to how it all played out and what may come after.
Have a wonderful time and survive till 6 a.m.
