Strong start but it dives off a cliff at the halfway mark - Imaginary review by AER
Imaginary builds a strong horror premise and works hard to develop a sense of unease. However, after an effective halfway reveal the storytellers throw the whole story under a bus and it swaps atmospheric slow burn for Freddy Kreuger Dream Warriors territory. There's lots of exposition to get through, and Betty Buckley's character is seemingly only around to spell everything out for us. What began as a show don't tell chiller ends up being a tell at the top of my voice and show too much affair. It's a shame as I was hoping Blumhouse's latest would break a losing streak which includes The Nun II and Afterswim....
