Mikey (1992)

Above Average Horror Film
The movie stars Brian Bonsall as Mikey Kelvin, a 9 year old boy who for no known reason one day snaps on his family and ends up killing them. The police come to the house and talk to Mikey. He gives the police a very convincing and fabricated story of an intruder he saw running from the house after his family was murdered. Soon after, Mikey sees a psychologist who deems him 'normal'. He then is placed up for adoption once again and ends up with the Trenton family.

During this whole process Mikeys teacher ' Ashley Lawrence ' becomes suspicious after seeing some pictures Mikeys been coloring and tries to warn the parents of his odd behavior. They dont listen and they end up the victim of Mikeys madness along with almost every other person he encounters.

Its amazing how sweet this kid could be then the next minute hes like a little monster. You love him to death when hes good but then when hes bad hes really evil.

Ive seen many thrillers/horror films and I'd have to say id rank this one at about a 3.5 out of 5. Not bad, Not Great, just pretty good. I'd definitely rent this or buy it if youre a fan of the genre.

Lame lame lame
My problem with Mikey is my same problem with the Good Son, the Bad Seed and other movies. I can't take killer kids seriously. At one point Mikey asks his teacher "Can you teach me how to die?" before offing her. I was hoping someone would show him! Honestly! This is just a little kid! If any of the main characters wanted they could have overpowered the little turd and bashed his little brains in! I guess that's my problem with movies that have sadistic psychotic killers who don't get their come uppance.
