Dennis Harvey Variety The combination of raves, hallucinogens, wild youth, and pagan rituals in a creepy former mental asylum ought to add up to something a lot more exciting than "City of Dead Men." Dec 16, 2016 Full Review Noel Murray Los Angeles Times It seems to want to be an artful social statement when it might have been better had it been trashier and more overtly terrifying - more "Hostel" than "City of God." Dec 15, 2016 Full Review David Noh Film Journal International That portentously pretentious title is just a hint of how bad this ode to living on the youthful edge in Colombia really is.

Audience Member This movie was decent. It had its good points, but also wasn't that great. It seemed reminiscent of Fight Club in a few instances, but not in a more profound way. Fight Club reigns supreme. I did like some of the scenes though. Bunny mask was cool. Shout out to Sleep Party People. It had good points, but overall I would not recommend it. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Apart from slick cinematography, there really isn't much to recommend about this Colombian horror-thriller. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member I liked this, It was a neat likkle ghost story of sorts. Alot of it reminded me of The Lost Boys. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Read all reviews
