Leave your thoughts about I Will Follow You Into the Dark.
| The PlaylistChristopher SchobertWhat is perhaps most surprising is that the film’s first hour, the non-horror section, is far more compelling than the second, an extended, nonsensical haunted hotel sequence that never scares, intrigues, or surprises. |
| RogerEbert.comSimon AbramsSmart and scary horror films about faith, and loneliness are rare, and for the most part, "I Will Follow You Into the Dark" is pretty exciting. |
| Village VoiceSam WeisbergThe scare tactics are rather ho-hum—suffocation nightmares, disappearing necklaces, loud noises—and the ending is incongruously sentimental. You'll be more frightened walking through a graveyard at dusk. |
| Arkansas Democrat-GazetteDan LybargerRobinson apparently believes the best way to jolt an audience is to have several sequences where darkness and silence linger on the screen before having loud music wake viewers up from a well-deserved slumber. |
| VarietyDennis HarveyFor a supernatural thriller that spends so much time on material that is neither supernatural nor thrilling, there’s not nearly enough effort put into credible, complex character writing, leaving the cast only so much ability to fill in the gaps. |
| New York Daily NewsElizabeth WeitzmanRare is the film so ineptly made that it barely deserves the dignity of a review. Which, on the one hand, makes this slapdash horror romance somewhat unusual. On the other, however, you’re wasting valuable time just reading about it. |
| User ReviewIldefonso MA sad and sorrowful case of being misunderstood, and the credit is not given where it's due. How often does an indie film approach bold questions about life and death? Then about doubting faith in our human condition? Then about what darkness is waiting for us after that, (as dreaded by some) final breath before the bridge of goodbye, and then run down the haunted hotel halls from shadow demons that are claiming your soul? Audience members only see a failed lights-and-lasers show, only focused on the value of production and calling it a catastrophe of cinema. I only see a tender subject matter being disguised as a ghost story. C'MON PEOPLE! |
| User ReviewBradley KVery uneven. At times the dialogue is excruciating and at other times the tension is delightfully uncomfortable. |
| User ReviewDavid MThis technically wasn't terrible, but it felt like a really boring Insidious. A really, really boring Insidious. |
| User ReviewMarah RThe story is so lacking as a romance, but as a horror, it has those freaky moments that make you want to shut your eyes. |
