Angelica feels like Alias Grace meets The Babadook. Go to Full Review
Noel Murray Los Angeles Times 11/16/2017
This is an alternately handsome and harrowing ghost story, about a civilized society haunted by its own unspeakable needs. Go to Full Review
Danielle White Austin Chronicle 11/16/2017
1.5/5
The supernatural elements brush up against some heavy topics, some actual real-life horrors, but like any encounter with a ghost, Angelica is likely to simply leave you cold. Go to Full Review
John Higgins Starburst 12/14/2017
9/10
It is a rare treat to encounter a period horror film which says a lot about the relationship between man and woman and man-versus-nature, whilst providing a satisfyingly eerie psychological drama. Go to Full Review
Andrew Winter Film Inquiry 11/28/2017
Angelica is a slow burn but rewards patience as the director takes his time to lay out his themes, introduce his characters and slowly ratchet up the melodrama. Go to Full Review
Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue 11/18/2017
It remains cold and emotionally distant, and not especially creepy, only somewhat redeemed by an intensely wacko finale that at least should generate discussion afterward. Go to Full Review

Dave C 12/29/2023 It's a well-presented Victorian-era psychosexual mystery with a Freudian allegory as its supernatural antagonist. Unfortunately, given that we know all of that (and that there is little else to know about the haunting presence), the story is weakened and doesn't hold any horror or suspense. The costumes, settings, and cinematography are all stellar. It's evident that the director lets this get away from him, focussing more on his ideas than on their successful execution See more hasan bulut c 03/31/2021 it is a dark gothic horror. it is a bit slow but definitely worth watching it. See more 11/08/2018 Inexplicably slow. A storyline with no real substance. An ending which makes little sense. Not worth spending time on. See more 08/04/2018 Great Film!
