The Boogeyman Gets Hulu Release Date
Here's how to watch The Boogeyman movie online, with or without Hulu.
Turn on the lights and check under the bed: The Boogeyman is coming to Hulu. Based on the short story by Stephen King, the PG-13 horror movie from director Rob Savage (Host) was originally planned to go straight-to-streaming on Hulu before King reportedly claimed: "'They'd be f---ing stupid to release this on streaming and not in cinemas.'" Disney's 20th Century Studios ultimately released The Boogeyman exclusively into theaters over the summer, grossing $82 million against a $35 million budget. And now, as part of the streamer's annual "Huluween" Halloween collection, The Boogeyman is set to debut on Hulu in October.
In The Boogeyman, high school student Sadie Harper (Sophie Thatcher, Yellowjackets) and her younger sister Sawyer (Vivien Lyra Blair, Star Wars: Obi-Wan Kenobi) are reeling from the recent death of their mother and aren't getting much support from their father, Will (Chris Messina, Birds of Prey), a therapist who is dealing with his own pain. When a desperate patient (David Dastmalchian, Oppenheimer) unexpectedly shows up at their home seeking help, he leaves behind a terrifying supernatural entity that preys on families and feeds on the suffering of its victims.
