Skeleton Man is a 2004 horror movie directed by Johnny Martin and it follows the story of a group of soldiers on a mission in Afghanistan who accidentally summon a demonic skeleton creature, which begins to hunt them down one by one as they attempt to make their way back to safety. The movie begins with a group of soldiers, including Captain Leary (Eric Etebari), Sergeant Wrangler (Jonathon Klein), Lieutenant Pavlov (Jackie Debatin) and Private Johnson, who are on a mission to locate a missing comrade. After coming across a strange cave, they unwittingly unleash the titular Skeleton Man, a supernatural creature with a skeletal body and glowing eyes that can kill with a single touch.

As the soldiers try to escape the Skeleton Man's wrath, they are pursued through the desert and stalked by the creature. Along the way, they meet a woman named Catherine, who has been living in the desert for years and is familiar with the creature. She warns them that they must destroy the Skeleton Man if they want to survive, but they soon realize that this task will not be easy.

The Skeleton Man continues to stalk the soldiers, picking them off one by one as they flee for their lives. They soon discover that the only way to destroy the Skeleton Man is to find its heart and destroy it, but this proves to be a difficult task as the creature continues to chase them relentlessly.

The movie features some tense and suspenseful scenes as the soldiers battle to survive, and the Skeleton Man proves to be a formidable foe. The creature is well-designed, with its skeletal appearance and glowing eyes creating an intimidating presence onscreen.

In terms of the acting, the performances are generally solid. Eric Etebari does a good job as Captain Leary, the tough and determined leader of the group, while Jonathon Klein is believable as the sarcastic and wisecracking Sergeant Wrangler. Jackie Debatin also delivers a strong performance as Lieutenant Pavlov, the only woman in the group who must battle not only the Skeleton Man but also the prejudices of her male counterparts.

Overall, Skeleton Man is a decent horror movie with some effective scares and an interesting premise. It's not the most groundbreaking or original film of its kind, but it's worth watching for fans of the genre. The desert setting and the intense chase scenes help to create a feeling of claustrophobia and a sense of isolation that adds to the suspense. If you're in the mood for a scary movie that will keep you on the edge of your seat, Skeleton Man is definitely worth a watch.

Skeleton Man is a 2004 horror movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 28 minutes. It has received poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 2.1.
