Fungus the bogeyman.
2004 Directed by Stuart Orme
BBC adaptation of Raymond Briggs' children's book. Fungus (voice of Mak Wilson)'s job is to venture above Bogeydom and scare dry-cleaners (a Bogey's name for humans). But on one trip disaster strikes and a dry-cleaner discovers their existence in Bogeydom. The dry-cleaner, Jessica (Clare Thomas), strikes up a friendship with Fungus' children and escapes back home to tell her father George (Martin Clunes) all about it. George then decides to stake-out the entrance to Bogeydom, in order to catch a real-life Bogeyman.

Review by mooreofbabylon ½ 8
in year five my teacher used to put this film on literally every day. like, EVERY day. finished a lesson early? fungus the bogeyman time. rain outside? fungus the bogeyman time. end of term “treat”? FUNGUS! THE! BOGEYMAN! TIME! anyway one time upon like. viewing number five hundred and sixty three i snapped and whispered at the back of the class “fuckus the buggerman” and this kid heard and said he was going to tell me off and i cried and anyway long story short he ended up going to one of the top boarding schools in the country and i ended up venting about this childhood trauma twelve years on instead of gaining such a stellar education. anyway this film doesn’t deserve rights and me and him still go pub together sometimes.

Review by Adil12uu ★★½ 9
Wow there’s only four reviews for this awfully cgied, puke inspired movie , pretty interesting honestly I thought it would have more traction since they played this in primary school like it was the second coming of Christ yes more time in my school was dedicated to fungus the bogeyman then it was to any other religious figure , it’s such a weird and forgettable movie aswell it’s inspired by a book we read that aswell call that our primary school bible. If you’ve read the book or watched the movie comment down below cuz I’m honestly curious if anybody else has heard of this movie.

Review by FoggyDave ★★
This has been haunting the slimiest of my nightmares for years.

Review by ekraeszig01 ★
I swear, I though half of this was an Xbox game cutscene.

Review by KMOKLER ★★★ 2

This haunted my childhood

Review by Steve Cuff ★ 1
Basically an episode of EastEnders starring Shrek.

Review by Chaotenkopp ★
Junge warum ist dieser Kinderfilm über komische grüne Stinkemenschen mit animationssequenzrn aus dem metaphorischen und tatsächlichen Gulli ein Ken Loach-esques Arbeiterdrama? Nur in beschissen, versteht sich.

Review by Fistofpiggy ★★★★★

Review by Bex ★★★
👻 spooky season movie no.5🎃
I don’t remember the cgi in this being as bad as it is. Like it’s proper 2004 video game style. The real life scenes have awful lighting and acting. Martin Clunes is just himself really, which is funny. I like the whole concept of the whole bogeyman world being under ground then going “up top” to see the “dry cleaners” and the normal things like seeing school in their world.
But did this really need to be 2hrs long?
Also, in school at like aged 7 me and my friends used to go around telling everyone the bogeyman lived in a gas shed in the school for years and his full house was in there.
