Critics Consensus

Countdown may offer a few fleeting jolts for horror fans with barren queues, but it lacks enough wit or creativity to leave a lasting impression.

Roxana Hadadi Chesapeake Family Magazine The constant loud noises and jump scares of Countdown are only enjoyable for truly novice horror watchers. Rated: 2.5/5 Oct 31, 2019 Full Review Meagan Navarro Bloody Disgusting We've seen these jump scares, and we've traveled this road many times before. It's competently made and isn't the worst way to spend an hour and a half, but it's also pretty forgettable. Rated: 2/5 Oct 31, 2019 Full Review Chris Stuckmann ChrisStuckmann.com The writing in this film is honestly embarassing. Rated: F Oct 29, 2019 Full Review Nicolas Soto But Why Tho? A Geek Community [Countdown] ended up being a major letdown. Rated: 3/10 Jan 22, 2023 Full Review Jordy Sirkin Jordy Reviews It COUNTDOWN is a bland techno-horror that relies too heavily on ineffective scares to get a rise out of the viewer. Boring and forgetful. Oct 26, 2022 Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies If nothing else at least it instills one piece of life-changing wisdom to smartphone owners everywhere – ALWAYS read the user agreement!
