GOBLIN is a typical monster-on-the-loose type horror flick. It was made by the SyFy Channel and shot in Canada, which is never a good combination; after an elaborate set-up involving a historical curse, this turns out to be business as usual with a CGI monstrosity stalking the woods and picking off a group of characters one by one.It involves plenty of cheesy acting from the unfamiliar cast members, lots of all-too-familiar chase sequences, and some gobbets of nasty gore to spice things up for horror fans. Unfortunately the premise is better than the execution: what could have been an interesting, supernatural-themed horror flick turns out to be the usual monster guff with every cliché in the book rolled out.The CGI creation in this - a goblin, apparently, although it looks nothing like one - is fairly effective, looking more like the Grim Reaper than a fairytale sprite. The effects are quite good actually, as are those aforementioned blood shots, but the characters are dull and the situations that unfold are strictly routine. Not much to recommend here if I'm honest.

A script that would have been original and worked, I dare say, 60 years ago maybe. Poor directing. "Overly creative" editing (if that's even a thing) that just... fails too many times. At the beginning this film fails every other scene until it starts failing in every scene and it just turns into a comedy. But let's focus on the best part......the acting.I felt sorry for the performances from almost every single actor. I really did. It's like "awwwww... she can't act" and then "awwww... he can't act either" and finally "awww... this is such a big mess" (note: that's when the master shot comes up and you have both of them in frame hehehe ;). Seriously. It really is that bad. But it's so much fun at the same time. That's actually what kept me watching this. If the acting was slightly better it would have killed the film for me because then it would have become unbearable. But it didn't so I give it a solid 10/10 because I had such a wonderful time and actually bothered to write this.

A teenager goes to the middle of nowhere with her best friend, her father, step-mother and baby step-brother. Unfortunately, the town they go to is cursed and every Halloween a goblin comes to life and steals babies. When the goblin comes for her baby brother this 17 year old must help save his life. It's not a great movie, but it's not terrible. The girls playing the 17 year old teenagers over do it and act more like they are 13 years old, which is a bit annoying. The CGI isn't bad for a lower budget movies and if you like horror you'll like this. Nothing new here, but you won't want to kill yourself while watching it. It would be nice if horror movies could work on improving the quality of acting in their films. Directors should always be asking their actors, "Is this how you would really react if this was real?"

I remember seeing this SyFy flick when it first aired, and caught it again today. It hasn't gotten any better with time. The title of the film is a bit misleading, because until the last 10 minutes, the title creature is actually a wraith, a hooded figure that can swoop down from the sky and is impervious to bullets. Someone here said the creature more closely resembled one of the wraiths from "Lord of the Rings," and I concur. Having said that, I acknowledge in the closing minutes, the creature is in fact revealed to be a goblin, although it is about about three times the size of any previous movie goblin. It's more like the Incredible Hulk size-wise. Periodically, this creature comes looking for babies to eat, in a small backwoods community. The acting is par for the course for this type of no-budget production and the CGI is typical SyFy level. In fact, this goblin ends up looking a lot like something from "Gremlins," only on a much larger scale. Nothing much going on here that we haven't seen before, and totally devoid of any scares.
