There is a scene in Five Nights at Freddy\u2019s<\/a><\/em><\/strong> where two animatronic monstrosities\u2014one a giant teddy bear and the other a yellow canary so devious even Sylvester would avoid it\u2014look menacingly at a character who watches them both on a security camera. Now, how they know this poor doomed soul is looking at the security feed at that exact moment, or why they harbor him ill intent, I cannot say. What I can attest to is they\u2019re so determined to end his life that they are serving him a dish best served screaming. No, really! The pair carry a sentient cupcake on a dish (it even has eyes and teeth), and they drop it down an air duct with the clear assumption being the malevolent pastry will find its way through the vents and commit homicide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While watching all of this unfold, your humble reviewer was stuck questioning the logic of, well, everything<\/em>. In a movie where it\u2019s stated every animatronic creature in this veritable Chuck E. Cheese from Hell is inhabited by the ghost of a murdered child, who is possessing our demented dessert? A demonic mouse? Admittedly, Five Nights at Freddy\u2019s<\/em><\/strong> is not a movie that invites such critical analysis, but it\u2019s a bad sign when the mind wanders in this direction all the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\r\n\n\t\t
