| HeyUGuysLauren BurgessDan Pringle may have just made a future cult classic in this twisted tale. |
| Screen InternationalKim NewmanWith strong work from a good cast (Abaza in particular), this joins a small group of British horror films rooted in observation and anger. |
| Times (UK)Kate MuirIn K-Shop, a little shop of horrors emerges in a kebab takeaway. |
| Total FilmStephen KellyIt may not be the most subtle take on 'binge Britain', but first-time writer/director Dan Pringle has a gift for the gruesome. |
| Movie TalkJason BestWriter-director Dan Pringle intersperses his protagonist's gory actions with verité footage of inebriated night-time revelry on the streets of Bournemouth that proves even more nauseating. |
| Radio TimesTrevor JohnstonThere's definitely more substance here than the usual penny dreadful, but ambition without accomplishment only goes so far. |
| GuardianPeter BradshawThere is no focus, it runs out of ideas, and we get endless ambient shots of people getting drunk in the streets. It sags - which is a shame. |
| Observer (UK)Wendy IdeThis short film idea can't sustain a feature, no matter how much chilli sauce and cranial trauma you pack into it. |
| Daily Express (UK)Allan HunterIf your local high street is a swill of foul-mouthed, drunken louts every weekend then K-Shop will definitely strike a chord. |
| User ReviewGman HNormally when I see the words "British Horror" it's enough to make me move on. (I am British) and in all honesty when I read the description I didn't hold out much hope for my opinion to change. However, I was proved so wrong. I really enjoyed It so much. It's rare that you find yourself routing for a serial killer but you very much do in this instance. Definitely worth a watch. |
