A bad idea from the start


Boogie Man (2018)

Directed by Andrew Morahan this film stars Kush Khanna, Jerry-Jane Pears and Karan Gill. A British-Indian teenager who has no idea what he wants to do with his life becomes obsessed with a model/actress he meets once.

There is a huge amount to be said about the life of second generation immigrants but this film has nothing interesting to say on the matter. Some times the film shows a little self awareness at the unacceptable actions of the protagonist and then goes and rewards them anyway. It is no surprise to find out this film is written by two white guys which explains a lot of the issues I have with it.

2/5
