The practical effects and grotesque puppet design are appealing... But inconsistent performances and contradictory characterizations make it difficult to invest in the real-world stakes. Go to Full Review

3/5
Set in 1993, with a VHS aesthetic and gory practical effects to match, Mr. Crocket spins millennial nostalgia into a perfectly passable supernatural parable. Go to Full Review

Mr. Crocket is a good Halloween horror movie and a concept to start a cool Hulu franchise if it’s given the opportunity. This could be a fun watch for you on October 31st. Go to Full Review

Modest but full of ideas, Mr. Crocket is a horror noir that turns a Bill Cosby type into a Freddy Krueger for those with '90s nostalgia. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

"Mr. Crocket" has a fun concept. It sadly never does anything with it. Go to Full Review

Ella T Nov 30 I loved it! My biggest desires in horror films are - seeing the demon as soon as possible - mostly practical effects - kid actors who look like they're having the best time - adult actors who ALSO look like they're having the best time - puppetry - dark scenes that make you still see something - creepy songs And this one ticks all of them! Shout-out to the practical effects crew and the puppetry crew PLEASE CAN I HAVE THAT DEMON CLOCK PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE See more Riley B Nov 23 Really good movie, the concept is so 'familiar', it delivers really well. Loved the practical side and how fast-paced it was. The acting was great, Mr. Crockets' actor was perfectly selected, he gives off the children's show presenter, an innocent personality perfectly, while also giving off an eerie vibe. No notes other than I wish there were a few more details surrounding the deal he made, & more depth into his backstory. Would love a sequel. See more Cristian s Oct 20 Buen concepto, pobre ejecución. La primera media hora y la estética turbia cuando entran al mundo de Mr Crocket es sin duda lo mejor de la película; pero la pobre ejecución en la historia, los desordenados (y aburridos) desarrollo/conclusión y los personajes protagónicos que generan cero empatía la arruinan casi por completo. Tenia potencial para ser mejor, una pena. See more love H. @horrorfan123 Oct 13 Okay this was good i just think it could’ve had a little bit of a better plot. See more Spencer B Oct 11 The bizarre mash-up of A Nightmare on Elm Street, Terrifier, and Pee-wee’s Playhouse I never knew I needed. It’s not the best horror movie, but you get exactly what you expect from Mr. Crocket: a fun, supernatural slasher that doesn’t take itself too seriously and fully leans into its wacky premise, delivering something better than the usual "lost episode" Creepypastas. Honestly, I wouldn’t mind seeing a sequel. See more Caleb L Oct 5 A colorfully fun time with a show stealing performance from Elvis Nolasco as Crocket. Here's hoping for a sequel in the near future!
