Way too long .... no mention of the victim . The perpetrators father is a diagnosed schizophrenic, and a serious nut bag. I guess it never occurred to them that their offspring might be affected? Idiots .....

Plot summary
Lurking in the shadows of the Internet, a faceless modern-day bogeyman has attracted the attention and fear of a young generation who whisper his name online. Slenderman lives on the dark pages of the web, where impressionable youth create and cultivate his mythos in message boards, YouTube clips and various other digital incantations. But the online fairy tale becomes a shocking real-life horror as two 12-year-old girls, guided by their devotion to Slenderman, lure their friend into the woods to attempt a seemingly inexplicable, brutal murder. From the depths of one the Internet's most unsettling creations to the court case that must consider the consequences, Beware the Slenderman brings to light questions of accountability in an age where young, growing minds are only a few clicks away from creating and consuming something that may influence them to commit unspeakable crimes.

Hmmmm
So much BS
I think these girls knew exactly what they were doing and just thought they could get away with it! Kids are much smarter than given credit. They have the knowledge but are still unable to make good decisions. They deserve long prison sentences. I think they had some grudge or were angry that Peyton was much prettier and more popular. They thought the whole thing out for months. If they really didn't want to do it, they would have confided In someone. All I can say is if they were really that stupid at 12 years old, they still should be locked away forever.
A Very Interesting Documentary
I don't watch a whole lot of documentaries, so I am in no way an expert on how well this certain film was told, but I do believe it conveyed thw information involved in a rather timely and decwntr manner. It's entertaining to watch, and very personal, as it should be. Everything is genuine, in fact at times, it can be quite heartbreaking to watch. I find it an interesting take not only on the story involved, but also on the human mind, mentally illness, and the culture children are growing into in this age. Some things I have to admit are a bit outdated, even for it's 2016 release, in terms of internet trends and stuff like that, but it is all accurate and very compelling. I enjoyed it, and I believe you should check it out if you have the time on HBO.
My Rating: 9/10
