Critics Consensus

It struggles to find a successful balance between its genre and allegorical elements, but Antlers is sharp enough to recommend as a richly atmospheric creature feature.

Read Critics Reviews

Audience Consensus

Antlers can be a little heavy-handed and it isn't very scary, but if you give this slow-burning story time to work, it'll get its hooks in you.

Growing up on the horror genre I would say this story rates up there as a movie to go 👀....however it does seem to a have a dull feel between the overall character play. It did serve well for some jump scares!

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Laden with doom, viscera and its own seriousness, Antlers is a sometimes effective, sometimes frustrating horror movie.

Rated: 3/5

Cooper doesn't pull a single punch, and this may be his bleakest storytelling endeavor yet.

Rated: 3.5/4

It's satisfyingly gross - there's plenty of black bile, crunching bones and half-chewed bodies.

Rated: 3/5

I’m so disappointed…. Creature effects & look is awesome But it’s barley there & the movie feels itself as a drama that just never grabbed me. It’s filled with some great performances & great moments but their far and few between

Antlers is a cleverly shot, character-driven horror story with effective jumpscares and a captivating narrative that ultimately fails to reach its true potential.

Rated: B-

The plot itself does little to provide the scares, and the entire film is completely devoid of tension and incredibly repetitive.
