FNAF the movie was bad. But the one thing that is annoying me is I cannot find anyone else in the world commenting about how Aunt Judy is killed by Golden Freddy in the family living room (btw, they can just leave the pizzeria now), and then at the end of the film they all go home and eat breakfast the next morning. No comment on the corpse rotting in their living room.
It's just a massive oversight on the part of the filmmakers. It ties in nicely with the lack of scares and chills, the bewildering plot line, and massive under-utilization of some of the game's own tropes. IDK what they were trying to do with this movie, but that was some of the tamest "horror" I've ever seen in my life. And the only reason that is remarkable is because the game series it is based on is much scarier.
So, my concluding remark is that the movie is bad whether you are familiar with FNAF or if it is your first exposure to the franchise.
never played FNAF but I remember it being a thing children were into in the mid 2010's it couldn't have been all that horrific.
The thing about the games is if you are playing them alone in the dark they maintain good tension during the play session, which is why they're scary. It was popular with younger audiences because it was easy to share, make your friends play it, ridiculously simple to play (you only need a mouse and to click a few things on the screen), and, notably, not violent.
I played it once like a decade ago and spilled my drink from the jump scare that following them with the cameras allows.
