1/4
Throughout its 86 minutes, it's too easy to tell whenever Behind You has given up at being truly surprising. Go to Full Review
Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter 04/15/2020
Behind You features little that horror film fans haven't seen endless times before. There's nothing wrong with familiar conventions, of course, but the novice writers/directors here fail to enliven them... Go to Full Review
Sarah Vincent Sarah G Vincent Views 06/09/2024
Horror is at its best when the sensational aspects are placeholders for real life issues, but here the horror is a rip off better films such as “The Exorcist” (1973) or “Paranormal Activity” franchise. Go to Full Review

There is nothing wrong with this film visually or atmospherically but the story left a lot to be desired. Go to Full Review

5/10
The characters feel underwhelming and its story proves super predictable. Go to Full Review
John Serba Decider 08/18/2020
An arid expanse of plot thirsting for a single droplet of logic and sense. Go to Full Review

David B 11/20/2024 Not sure why people expect anything new after 100 years of horror movies, and 100 years of written gothic horror before that. Of course it's all been done before! This was a very accomplished contribution to that legacy which I enjoyed. Atmospheric. Good acting. All, I suspect on a small budget. Plus a 'nice' ending for a change (whilst leaving the door open for more). See more Luke W 08/22/2024 This movie is a complete waste of time and budget. The monster or what ever it is which they barely explain through throwaway dialogue. It feels like this movie could have ended three or four times. Acting is atrocious and story is a made by AI most likely. How this got passed through by Amazon is beyond me. See more 08/29/2021 This is a good scary movie with a shocking twist. My legs were restless during a lot of scenes!!! See more 07/02/2021 First half was alright. Second half was meh! It is as if the director ran out of idea and tried to drag the movie longer using recycled ideas. See more 03/02/2021 This film HAS to be a joke, right? This is best summarized as an unintentional parody of the genre. Even the first Annabelle movie knew when to stop copying previous films of the same concept, this movie doesn't even try to do that. Every haunted house trope you can possibly think of is found here. Logic is also out the window, the characters are boring, the dialogue is also just laughable, and the acting is uneven at best. Oh, and the film is a fan of never knowing when to end either, which is the most annoying thing about it. Notice how I haven't even mentioned the scares either, because the film's about as scary as a piece of wet cardboard. Just...no. See more 01/26/2021 The writing leaves a lot to be desired. The acting starts strong, then drops in a big way. Half of the movie is incoherent screaming with little explanation while the cuts seem to teleport characters to different rooms haphazardly. This movie abruptly shifts to a parody of itself, and unfortunately shows Andrew Mecham's inexperience. See more Read all reviews
