What a weird way to deal with illegal immigration. Partly poking fun at far right and partly a gore fest, Carnage doesn't really ever land anywhere.

Totally biased movie, plus they represent Argentina with a Chilenian actress and it is totally offensive.

Absolutely awful. I thought. "Oh a comedy/horror movie. How bad could it possibly be?" Well bad enough that I couldn't finish the movie and I created an account on this website to warn others. Anybody comparing it to get out should have their credentials as a critic taken away. This movie tries to take itself seriously, even though throughout it is so cheesy I figured it was being intentionally bad. As a Latino person I winced at some of the cast's portrays of being Latin. It's not that the script didn't age well, it was cringeworthy to begin with

Noel Murray

Los Angeles Times

A lively, impassioned and only slightly exaggerated take on how some people use anti-immigrant sentiment to distract from their own monstrous crimes.

AV Club

The film doesn’t reach the stylistic or narrative highs of its obvious predecessor, but if it’s not quite Get Out, the Hallivis Brothers translate issues facing Hispanic Americans to a horror scenario well worth getting into.

Rated: B

American Carnage is a relevant political horror film wrapped in a satirical comedy.

An interesting Latino spin on Jordan Peele’s Get Out, American Carnage blends horror, comedy, and political messages to create an entertaining story with an important moral core.

Rated: 3/5

Though the film targets the right bad guys, it poorly tells its story.

Tilt Magazine

For a while, it seems to be succeeding. But then the film resets itself once, and then again, and ultimately pivots far away from what it was doing well.

Rated: 2/5
