The only good part about the Boogeyman is that it has some decent scares. The sound effects and build up to some jump scares is well done and very effective. Which isn't difficult, since the monster lives in the dark.
However, the rest of the movie is just an insult. From the get go, it is as clear as day (night) what/when/where the monster is. And even after various encounters, still each and every character in this movie has the weird habit to go into attics, basements and other rooms, that apparently have no working lights. Even the little daughter continuous to watch movies/games, all alone, at night, with zero lights or lamps.
At a certain point you start wondering how stupid the filmmaker thinks the audience is. And when you reach that point, probably at 1/3rd of the movie, that's where it all falls down. Pity, since it started well.
