Leave your thoughts about Dead Night.
| Blu-ray.comBrian OrndorfWhile Baruh isn't strong with introductions, he's reasonably good with payoffs, generating a whirlwind of strangeness that saves the viewing experience. |
| Aisle SeatMike McGranaghanThe movie oozes eerie atmosphere and sinks its teeth into you. |
| Village VoiceAbbey BenderCrampton’s performance, the squelchy sound design, and spurts of blood provide occasional jolts, but Dead Night ends up being muddled, never committing to either solemn supernatural horror or its elements of camp. |
| Eye for FilmJennie KermodeMore than just the slasher horror you might expect from its setting, Dead Night is an ambitious film whose strength is in its strangeness. |
| Backseat MafiaRob AldamWhat makes Dead Night such fun is how invested the cast all are in this melting pot. Turning a film which could have been tiresome into a highly entertaining and enjoyable, if scattergun, romp. |
| RogerEbert.comPeter SobczynskiIt has a couple of interesting ideas, a certain degree of style and one impressive performance but never manages to pull them together into a cohesive or satisfying whole. |
| Projected FiguresAnton BitelBrad Baruh's bonkers family tragedy is all at once a psychological and supernatural tale of perverse female empowerment. |
| StarburstRich CrossIt's just a shame that, despite the determination and resilience of the filmmakers, its full potential got lost somewhere back in the forest. |
| Screen QueensChloe LeesonDead Night certainly boasts originality and style but requires the refinement of a more seasoned filmmaker to wade through this forest of ideas. |
| SciFiNowJonathan HatfullWith good performances, great atmosphere and plenty of gory surprises, horror fans should definitely give it a chance. |
