It's a fascinating look at how a filmmaker can become so obsessed with something, it destroys his life.

Butterfly Kisses is a great tool for teaching about genre mechanics, and also about balancing your insights with properly calibrated scares.

Butterfly Kisses feels like a familiar story, but it is told in such a disturbingly unique way that it is definitely worth checking out.

As thoughtful and original as Butterfly Kisses is, it's fair to question who, exactly, the film is really for. It's the kind of thing that's bound to play like gangbusters at film festivals...

Rated: 7.5/10

If you think the subgenre is done and finished, Butterfly Kisses might change your mind as it's head and shoulders above the rest.

Rated: 8/10

The negative reviews are written by the crowd of brainrotted illiterate “in need of constant stimulation” iPad babies who want a jump scare a minute while they watch TikTok’s on their phone in the theater. If you’re a fan of found footage, this is really very well done. Interesting narrative, kind of like a mixture of “The Blair Witch Project” and “Sinister.” Highly recommend.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Who are these people giving this movie five stars? I got halfway through and started wondering why I had wasted my time. A mish mosh of BS. Don't waste your time!

The documentary style of found footage dragged on for me. I liked the idea and the shaky camera work was done well. I felt like I had seen this before. Not as riveting as The Blair Witch, I liked the idea of Peeping Tom and I found myself searching the found footage to see if I could see him show up. I swear there were several times that were not mentioned by the actors. It had a good jump scare that made me jump. I would watch this with my teenage daughters but they may get lost in their phones and miss the clues and hints in the show. The pacing just did not feel right.

Yeah, yeah. I know. Everyone but a few of us think found footage sucks. I think you’re wrong, but even if you’re not, you just might like this movie. I have seen this probably over a dozen times, and I love it each and every time. The acting is very good. The direction is great. The story is excellent. Just give it a shot.
