| The New York TimesManohla DargisMr. Wrona is very good at thickening the air with mystery, and right from the start he slips in enigmatic details and figures — the prowling bulldozer, a keening woman, a scowling man — that disturb the ordinary scene. Like pebbles dropped in water, these disturbances create concentric circles that spread, disrupting everything. |
| Los Angeles TimesJustin ChangPerhaps it’s best to appreciate Demon not for what it implies but for what it simply and unmistakably is: A bravura testament to a talent silenced far too soon. |
| Slant MagazineChuck BowenDemon offers a tidal wave of unrelieved longing and regret, with a devilish streak of absurdism. |
| Christian Science MonitorPeter RainerStarts slowly and ominously and gradually accelerates into a frenzy. |
| RogerEbert.comSimon AbramsThe horrors of Demon are disturbing because you can see how ordinary they might seem to anyone who isn't paying enough attention. |
| ScreenCrushMatt SingerWhatever Demon’s autobiographical elements, this film feels incredibly personal; like a howl of pain ripped straight out of someone’s soul. |
| Austin ChronicleMarc SavlovThe Polish/Israeli co-production picked up the Best Horror Feature award at Fantastic Fest 2015, and it’s a shame that Wrona is gone, but at least we have this superlative example of his cinematic brilliance. |
| San Francisco ChronicleDavid LewisThe exquisitely shot Demon is not gory or particularly scary, but it has its fair share of chills. |
| The A.V. ClubKatie RifeIt’s the kind of film that, rather like its mournful title apparition, clings to your sleeve and follows you home. |
| The PlaylistKimber MyersDemon is a film that improves the longer it sits with you, as various images seep into your consciousness and reappear without warning. |
