Movie Reviews

Reeling Reviews - 9/10 by Laura CliffordWriter/director Gareth Tunley's moebius strip of a movie is a puzzle piece like "Memento" crossed with the satanic tone of executive producer Ben Wheatley's "Kill List" and Simon Rumley's "The Living and the Dead's" unsettling portrait of mental illness.
The Arts Desk - 8/10 by Nick HastedThe Ghoul is an occult British thriller about depression, with a bleakly poetic view of London, and a seedy sadness at its core.
Times (UK) - 8/10 by Ed PottonThe title suggests an orgy of the undead loaded with jump scares, but this is a more restrained and more disturbing proposition. The monster here is metaphorical: part depression, part manic obsession.
The List - 8/10 by Emma SimmondsThe Ghoul embraces its low-budget Britishness - it's both dynamic and despondent, while Tunley makes strong use of its London locations as his protagonist pounds the capital's streets in a futile search for existential answers.
SciFiNow - 8/10 by Jonathan HatfullThe Ghoul proves to be a dark, atmospheric and surprisingly moving portrayal of a crumbling psyche.
Sight and Sound - 8/10 by Anton BitelAn impressively melancholic, brain-bending tragedy whose convolutions are well worth revisiting through multiple circuits, whether in your spinning head or in subsequent viewings.
Observer (UK) - 8/10 by Wendy IdeFirst time writer/director Gareth Tunley marshals the meagre resources of this micro-budget psychological thriller and creates a pleasingly perplexing enigma of a movie.
Starburst - 7/10 by Courtney ButtonGareth Tunley's first feature film is an interesting and strong calling card. It struggles to find its feet at times, but it's enough to make you look forward to what he'll do next in a hopefully exciting and fruitful film career.
Dog and Wolf - 6/10 by Alexa DalbyIt's is a cleverly convoluted tale that coils tightly around itself.
Daily Express (UK) - 6/10 by Allan HunterIt may not withstand close scrutiny but The Ghoul provides a workout for the little grey cells and suggests Tunley is a filmmaker to watch.
