Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Best for anyone who loves trying to stay one step ahead and people who like to watch through their fingers. A good one for a late-night scare. Shelve it next to The Invitation or Carnival of Souls.
The mood
Scary.
The pace
Tense from early on, at 1 hr 23 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1954: an older pace and style.
  • Not one for anyone who hates jump scares.

At a carnival called the Garden of Evil, a man is murdered, apparently by a gorilla...
