Marshmallow (2025). Another movie that made me go "wtf"! If you have not seen this watch it now. I'm honestly surprised I don't see many people talk about this even my horror Youtubers.

This movie has been on my radar for awhile and I went into it completely blind. At first it looked like some kind of camp slasher film, but than I saw one of the tags was syfi and was very curious.

A boy goes to a summer camp after the death of his grandfather and gets told a campfire story about a serial killer targetting children who turns out to be real.

I love this movie's throwback 80s style. I actually found myself enjoying the scenery of the woods surrounding this camp and how it's shot, especially those nighttime scenes.

And holy shit was I not expecting some of the turns this took. Usually I watch movies and start putting stuff together on what's happening, but this is the first time in a long time every prediction I had was wrong. I was honestly taken off guard.

I usually go into details on spoilers with the movies I watch when I makes these threads, but this is one time I don't want to simply because I want to encourage more people to check this out and come up with an opinion of their own. Let me just say the ending felt like it could be the prequel to a much older movie I used to see back in the day involving primarily children as characters and the implications are wild. This is definately hidden gem tier.

Only thing that baffled me was once again the rating. It is marked a tv-MA rating which is crazy to me, but I pretty much gave up trying to understand rating systems.
