“The Goblin” (* out of four) was a nearly unendurable mess set in the 1920’s about a young boy (Robert Levey II) imprisoned in a mansion by an abusive recluse mother (Nicole Hargrove) who begins to conjure ideas of escaping when a mysterious goblin in the closet comforts him in the dark. Even at only about an hour, you’ll feel more imprisoned than the boy by the end of this dreck. Cheapjack production and terrible filmmaking make this a real brutal watch. Re-watch “Hansel And Gretel” instead.
