Appendage is first and foremost a lot of fun, and Zlokovic clearly delights in employing older horror movies as a palette through which she can tell her own story of the nightmare many women face as they struggle to live up to impossible expectations

A comically freaky look at the inner voices we must learn to live with.

Rated: 3/4

Little White Lies

while this feature debut is certainly body horror, it is also a psychological allegory, dramatising Hannah’s therapeutic path to both emotional balance and accommodation of her worst qualities alongside the best.

A Good Movie To Watch

The special effects team dropped the ball on this one, and the appendage's physical presence is more distracting than anything. Its concept and its aura, though, go a long way.

Rated: 5.6/10

Draftkings Nation

Rennard does a particularly good job in scenes where Hannah has to battle with her mother over a past mistake to see there’s always time to make a change. However, Appendage doesn’t feel like it can juggle its major themes once they are placed together.

Common Sense Media

Appendage tries to add some lighter moments to balance out the horror, but these feel more forced than funny, more hokey than campy.

Rated: 2/5

I related to this very much. This movie is my life reflected back on me. The family life is the same as mine. True to life.

Acting was ok. Story line was not original. Remind me of a darker version of Milo.
