Saturday Night Popcorn is back with another episode of horror movie reviews and discussions.
This week, we’re talking about Five Nights at Freddy’s, the 2023 film adaptation of the popular video game series created by Scott Cawthon. The film follows Mike Schmidt, a troubled security guard who takes a night-time job at an abandoned family entertainment center, where he discovers that the four animatronic mascots come alive and are inclined to commit murder. Directed by Emma Tammi and produced by Blumhouse Productions, the film stars Josh Hutcherson, Elizabeth Lail, Piper Rubio, Mary Stuart Masterson, and Matthew Lillard. We’ll give you our honest opinions on the film’s plot, characters, scares, and special effects, as well as some trivia and behind-the-scenes facts. Did the film do justice to the game’s lore and fanbase? Was it worth the wait and the hype? How did the animatronics look and behave on the big screen?
