Norman Gidney HorrorBuzz A well-made but frustrating slow-burn cult movie that relies more on obtuse symbolism than anything of consequence. Rated: 5/10 Nov 24, 2024 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film Baal is a film that will get under your skin, unsettling to a rare degree. Rated: 4/5 Oct 7, 2024 Full Review Douglas Davidson Elements of Madness Though the metaphors hold strong throughout "Baal," a tale that uses many in its exploration of grief and redemption, they lack the surrounding clarity necessary to complete the chokehold the film seeks to place upon its audience. Rated: 3/5 Oct 6, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
