Blog 52: Man Thing (2005, Dir. Brett Leonard)
You would think maybe a Marvel comic book adaptation might just make a good horror B-movie? Well, maybe it would; but not this time I’m afraid true believers.
Wooden characters, a ropey plot and some cheap CGI hold this together, and there aren’t not enough shocks or scares to keep you interested and it’s not one of those “So bad its good” horror films either, its just unforgivably drawn out and dull. The one saving grace is the Man Thing itself which is annoyingly underused.
Stick to the big hitters in the Marvel film catalogue, Spidey, The X-Men, Iron Man… maybe even Howard the Duck would do!
3/10

Extra: That’s right, Howard the Duck - way better.
