Leave your thoughts about The Empty Man.
| RogerEbert.comBrian TallericoThe Empty Man draws comparisons to junky studio fare like “The Bye Bye Man” and “Slender Man” but this is a far more ambitious and accomplished piece of work than its reputation. |
| The Film StageJohn FinkWhile the film never quite elevates itself to a harmonious balance of camp and art house, The Empty Man doesn’t lack ambition. |
| The Globe and Mail (Toronto)Barry HertzA disposable, ultimately best-forgotten movie. |
| User ReviewKobesownerOne of the greatest horror films ever made. Deep, dark, terrifying with fantastic direction and music. It has tons of ideas and themes that are all so captivating and the visual connections are phenomenal. Don't have any issues with it. Definitely check it out it deserves your time. |
| User ReviewMetal_GuruCriminally underrated, "The Empty Man" is epic and visionary, existential horror dialed to 11. This is without doubt one of the creepiest movies I've ever seen. Don't let the title fool you, or if you are going to think about it terms of other "... Man" films, think "The Wicker Man", because that's the only one worthy of being mentioned in the same breath. The never ending loop of expanding and contracting possibilities, experiences and visualizations that are established in the nightmare logic of the film will rattle your bones and make "your brain itch". The sound design is stunning and terrifying....like it was piped in directly from hell itself. The film went through quite a difficult process to get released, and terrible marketing choices (and trailer) took a toll, but ratings average will surely continue to increase over time as it finds the audience it was actually intended for. This is a guaranteed to be a future monster cult hit. "The Empty Man" has a very high rewatchability factor...it's a film that will invite and hold up to multiple viewings.... |
| User ReviewGreigImpressive scope and structure. Brave genre hopping story. Deserves more hype. The negative reviews are from people whos expectations were based on the trailer. Bad marketing, great film. |
| User ReviewPanchogulLarga, algo lenta, misteriosa, psicológica y una historia y contexto que tiene similitudes con la película Slenderman, con la diferencia que The Empty Man si es una buena película y Slenderman no tiene sustancia y llegó 10 años tarde. |
| User ReviewObsoleteGhoulThank you Chris Stuckmann, thank you. The Empty Man is one of the best and creepiest horror movies I've seen in a long time. Hope they release a blu ray for this i would love to have it in my collection. |
| User ReviewJeBjBoGreat mystery thriller, melancholic atmosphere, an actually creepy entity, lovecraftian themes and story structure, great score. |
| User ReviewdharmaTwisty, horror film is more in the reign of 'Jacob's Ladder' and the like, a slow burn thriller with a surprising twist. It has since become a cult classic and it deservedly so. Not everyone's cup of tea for sure. |
