Movie Reviews

MTV - 8/10 by Charles WebbOn paper, a slasher-thriller with supernatural overtones, Deadly Blessing is instead a series of loosely connected parts.
The New York Times - 7/10 by Janet MaslinA better-than-average horror film, in large part because it isn't about terrified coeds being stalked by an ax wielding loon. Its story is more original than that -although where horror-movie ingenuity is concerned, it's only a thin line that separates the original from the bizarre.
Slant Magazine - 6/10 by Eric HendersonMore often than not, the movie only glancingly burrows beneath America’s attitudes toward rural evangelism that surfaced concurrently with the advent of the Moral Majority.
The A.V. Club - 5/10 by Scott TobiasCraven’s best work resolves the contradictions of his bloodlust and intellect—in that, Deadly Blessing isn’t one of his best.
User Review - 10/10 by Chris MSuch a fun ride. My favorite Craven film next to Nightmare. it is a truly bizarre film, and Craven made some rather unique choices here. I loved it.
User Review - 10/10 by Tico PHave not seen this movie in ages. Loved it when it first came out. Great suspense, loved Ernest Bordnine in it too.
User Review - 8/10 by Will LIn ' Deadly Blessing', Wes Craven takes the audience on a bizarre journey that touches on some interesting spiritual themes, culminating in one of the horror genre's craziest endings. Ernest Borgnine plays his role with commendable presence and conviction.
User Review - 8/10 by Ferdi AThere's no corn, but might as well call this Amish of the Corn. It's actually a pretty good (for it's time) thriller. Full of suspense, a couple of twists, some misdirection; It works well. The 15 seconds at the end (shortest paranormal addition to a film maybe ever - which is kind of thrown in for who knows why) are quite effective and surprising. Think Craven's Nightmare on Elm Street final scene; it's similar. In fact, there are so many parallels between this movie and his successful horror inception of NOES (bath scenes are almost interchangeable). Plus you get Ernest Borgnine leading the creepy, cult-like Amish (or hitite) group, a very young (teenage?) Sharon Stone, and a lead character that strikes a very uncanny resemblance to Rachel McAdams in Maren Jensen. Thumbs up for this early Wes Craven piece.
User Review - 8/10 by FilmGrinder SA lesser known entry in Wes Craven's filmography, this was sandwiched inbetween the notorious Hills Have Eyes and the franchise busting Nightmare on Elm Street but failed to reach the commercial heights of either of it's near neighbours. A more traditional horror tale compared to his other output this is a much tamer outing than his fans may have wanted. Set in the mid-west of America it tells of a young farming couple who are at odds with their neighbours, a community of Hittites (a more conservative version of the Amish if that's possible) due to the young farmer having left the community to marry a girl from the big city. When the farmer is killed in what appears to be a mysterious accident his his widow invites two friends from the city to help her overcome her loss and run the farm. The Hittites are further enraged by more unwanted newcomers in their midst and someone starts offing the cast members and putting both groups at odds with each other. Craven manages to craft a quite atmospheric feeling to the film which is more of a spooky slow burn than most of his back catalogue. The landscape is artistically shot to build the feeling of isolation and the characters interaction is well played. Where is flounders at times is a lack of focus on what it's trying to be - at one turn it's a supernatural ghost story, the next it's aiming to be a slash and stalk flick. As it fails to settle on one direction and make the best of it. It does contain some very effective scenes however, not least Sharon Stone (in her first film role) having a very close encounter with a large spider in the barn. Regular Craven cast member Michael Berryman turns up playing his usual slightly deranged character but despite being the focus of much of the film's promotional material is only really a supporting character. Craven delivers some decent characterisation and a fair few shocks but then the whole thing becomes a bit of a mess in the final ten minutes when it piles multiple conflicting plot twists upon one another as the identity of the killer is revealed. Despite that it remains an assured piece of film making that deserved a wider audience than it received on it's initial release and would certainly be recommended for anyone wanting some milder chills on Halloween evening.
User Review - 8/10 by Blais EA surprisingly thoughtful and low-key horror offering from Freddy Krueger's dad, Wes Craven, high on characterization and disturbing visuals, but low on the gore quota. A young widow (The beautiful Maren Jensen from TV's original "Battlestar Galactica") struggles to get along with her dead husband's family and community, an intolerant Amish-like sect called the Hittites (Led by a menacing Ernest Borgnine-) who not only do not accept her but harass her unceasingly. A couple of her old girflfriends (One being a young Sharon Stone in a very early film appearance-) come to stay with her to keep her company and become the targets of the strange and increasingly frightening events themselves. Soon, several of the characters turn up dead---who or WHAT is responsible? A spooky, and rarely-seen little terror-gem replete with memorably-eerie set-pieces (The fat, juicy spider-dropping-into-Sharon Stone's-mouth-scene is unforgettable-), attractive scenery and lush cinematography, and superb acting, especially by Lois Nettleton in a great, going-totally bonkers role. An interesting departure from Craven's usual fare.
