Norman Gidney HorrorBuzz Culprit aspires to weave a sordid tale of small-town intrigue and secrets long buried. Sadly, it is so preoccupied with constructing an impenetrable mystery that the audience is essentially cheated. Rated: 5/10 Mar 20, 2025 Full Review Alan Ng Film Threat Culprit is an old-school thriller that knows how to keep you on edge. Rated: 8/10 Mar 12, 2025 Full Review Abbie Bernstein Assignment X Culprit does have some things to say about rumor mills and mob violence, but its main power is in its consistent success from start to finish as a whodunit. Rated: B Mar 12, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

JD B I felt that CULPRIT was a truly great thriller that really keeps you on the edge of your seat until the very last minute... and beyond! Great performances and no way to figure out what really happened until the very end. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/28/25 Full Review Kayla R It's a standout indie thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat with its sharp writing, intelligent direction, and powerhouse performances. The plot is refreshingly unpredictable and the acting's rather captivating with its layered vulnerability and complexity throughout the cast. All in all, Culprit is a captivating film that takes you on an emotionally charged ride. The story stays with you long after the credits roll. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/22/25 Full Review Jalen G Finally, a thriller that keeps you guessing until the very last scene. In an era where so many thrillers feel formulaic and predictable within the first ten minutes, Culprit stands out. The plot is filled with twists and turns that genuinely surprised me, keeping me engaged throughout. I thoroughly enjoyed the ride and look forward to seeing if a sequel is in the works 🤞🏿 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/22/25 Full Review Mey C I absolutely loved this movie. It was fast paced and super sharp and was a total thrill. The ending! 🤯🙌 so good! Great cast - just excellent performances, all around. Awesome indie filmmaking. 👏more please! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/22/25 Full Review Brit C I’ve had this itch to watch a good thriller that I haven’t seen, something well written with good production value that I could get lost in. I found the perfect one in Culprit. Edge of my seat the whole time, never knowing what was gonna happen next and jaw dropping when it did. Truly a great ride from start to finish. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/20/25 Full Review Suzanne H This is a terrible movie. The acting is exceptionally awful, the plot is all over the place, and the dialogue is atrocious. It really comes off as a cheesy lifetime movie from the 80s with the exception of the one-off over the top gore scene. So random. Legitimately the biggest waste of time I’ve spent on a movie in a decade. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/21/25 Full Review Read all reviews
