I
went into “The Tall Man” with mild expectations. Nothing high, but it was
recommended I see it and it’s from Pascal Laugier, same filmmaker behind “House
of Voices” a personal favorite of mine. The first indication that something was
awry was the Netflix synopsis and its name. At first I didn’t think too much
about it, just thought it was a silly title and moved on. But upon reading the
synopsis I seriously started to wonder if the film is based off of the
Slenderman mythology.
