Adaptational Villainy | |
Windigo / int_20f689e9 | comment |
Adaptational Villainy: This version of the Slender Man, unlike his other enigmatic and mysterious incarnations, is portrayed as a pure evil entity who likes to commit acts of malice simply for fun. He's the only version who displays a clear personality at all, in contrast to his usual portrayal as an enigmatic, unknowable force of nature. | |

Windigo / int_2d4fa515 | comment |
Ax-Crazy: The Slender Man is shown in this case to be a deranged sadist who kills and manipulates people just to amuse himself. We see more of this when he uses Brandon as his vessel. | |

Windigo / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: On one hand, the Slender Man manages to possess Brandon, but two characters still manage to escape with their lives. Hell, in the fight with the Slender Man himself, they still win. | |

Windigo / int_415b3315 | comment |
Stylistic Suck: The characters originally set out to create a documentary on deforestation. From what we see of their work, it's...not very good. | |

Kill It with Fire: The Slender Man gets apparently killed when one of the guys rams a car into him which it subsequently explodes. He actually survived by possessing the cameraman. | |

Halfway Plot Switch | |
Windigo / int_ace24b2c | comment |
Halfway Plot Switch: The first half of the movie is a comedy about some teenagers trying, and failing, to make a documentary about deforestation, with bits of horror thrown in. After that, the plot turns into a straight-up horror film with barely any dialogue about cameraman Brandon running through the forest trying to outmaneuver the Slender Man. | |

For the Evulz | |
Windigo / int_adfd3165 | comment |
For the Evulz: At first, the Slender Man seems like the typical brainless and homicidal monster just like the usual horror movie routine. However at end after tricking the characters into killing one of their own and possessing Brandon's body, it's revealed that all he did until then was simply for pure fun. He even talks, showing a more human-like personality, and thanks the boys for "having brightened the week." | |

Windigo / int_c95d04f2 | comment |
It Can Think: Initially, the Slender Man gets his traditional portrayal as an unknowable foe who disappears people for no discernible reason, but at the end of the film, when The Slender Man possesses Brandon, his Evil Gloating reveals his cunning in manipulating the protagonists and turning them against each other by playing on their fear and paranoia. | |

Windigo / int_cc4d190a | comment |
Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: The cast take the fight to the Slender Man and his puppets, killing many in the process. Kwekon pulls a Heroic Sacrifice by ramming a exploding car into him. When the Slender Man possesses Brandon, he doesn't do much better; Reese beats him twice, and Reese and his girlfriend escape him in the end. | |
