Critics Consensus

1BR's occasionally ordinary storytelling is more than outweighed by tight direction, interesting ideas, and an effective blend of horror and thoughtful drama.

1BR's unique timeline paired with its palpable tension makes for a memorable addition to the horror-movies-about-cults catalog.

It's an interesting idea, the execution is competent if not spectacular... And it made me really glad to live in an apartment complex where I know none of my neighbors.

There's a light at the end of the tunnel for Sarah, and seeing her claw her way to it is often fun, albeit in a gasp-inducing sort of way.

Rated: 3/4

A neat, punchy piece of suburban horror...Far-fetched, but well done. Perfect Halloween fare.

Rated: 3/5

1BR is quite an unassuming horror thriller that alludes to a possible home invasion story but divulges something much different.

Fantastic low budget thriller, with an even more fantastic conspiracy ending. It’s a lot like the Invitation (2015) only better

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Animal Cruelty is NEVER okay. You can make a good horror movie without it, it's disgusting.

Despite some predictability, the movie’s tension and moments of shocking violence make it worth watching, particularly for fans of psychological horror. It may feel familiar to seasoned horror viewers, but its intelligent approach to cult dynamics keeps it engaging until the end.
