So it seems pretty obvious this film was release to help with the constant addiction kids have to their devices.

The actual "tablet monster" that moves through light bulbs was pretty creepy looking. By the end of the film, you find out that the monster "Larry" just wants a friend to hang out with. Unfortunately, that friend ends up becoming a long legged monster type thing like Larry.
Overall, it was in the meh category because of the weaksauce story and not much scare factor.
