Movie Reviews

Shadows on the Wall - 9/10 by Rich ClineArtistic and insightful, this sharply well-made film has an emotional resonance that becomes thoroughly haunting as the story travels to places we don't expect it to go. A sense of foreboding terror keeps us gripped, as does an underlying hope.
Guardian - 8/10 by Peter BradshawA slow-moving, insistently gripping, faintly Dostoyevskian tale of violence and retribution set in the swooningly photographed Hungarian countryside.
Scotsman - 8/10 by Alistair HarknessStrickland delivers a psychologically complex twist on the genre's usual cathartic blood-letting. Haunted performances, an intricate and creepy score and a folklore-like setting add to the foreboding atmosphere.
London Evening Standard - 8/10 by Derek MalcolmLike a folk tale crossed with a thriller and road movie. Without a doubt it is one of the best new British films of the year, if you can justly call it fully British.
Time Out - 8/10 by David JenkinsA film of remarkable assurance and intensity.
Daily Express (UK) - 8/10 by Allan HunterAn impressive debut from expat British director Peter Strickland with a powerful central performance from Hilda Péter.
Daily Mirror (UK) - 8/10 by David EdwardsAn eerie, intelligent drama lifted into the realm of must-see territory thanks to Péter's gently nuanced performance, plus a haunting soundtrack.
Total Film - 8/10 by Tom DawsonDeliberately paced, it has the timeless, brooding quality of a tragic folk tale, in which violence begets more violence. Strickland builds and sustains an ominous atmosphere through stark images, artfully heightened sound design and an otherworldly score.
Times (UK) - 8/10 by Kevin MaherA complex moral terrain and slow-burning tone reminiscent of Pawel Pawlikowski (My Summer of Love) announce the arrival of a genuine film-making talent.
Filmstar Magazine - 7/10 by Tom HutchinsonTidy revenge tragedy that successfully resists the influence of the Romanian New Wave.
