The Privilege is what happens when Get Out cheats on the The Da Vinci Code and gets arrested for having a trashy threesome with I Know What You Did Last Summer and The Final Destination.

Common Sense Media

Despite obvious manipulation, and an oddball central plot involving a fungus that grows on corpses and inside victims, The Privilege could prove a hit.

Rated: 3/5

Bangkok Post

Another example of a horror-type film that could not make up its mind on what it wants to be.

Roger Moore

Movie Nation

A too-predictable German mashup of a couple of horror genres and several paranoid thrillers, all underscored by the big idea in Jordan Peeles Get Out.

Rated: 1.5/4

But Why Tho? A Geek Community

If youre looking for a fun horror watch that throws different subgenres into a blender and works, The Privilege is it. Family, corporate intrigue, trauma, and the supernatural all collide for a good time.

Rated: 8.5/10

Lousy movie. Bad acting and script that is coupled with a confused and erratic storyline and plot. It's just a heap and mesh of unoriginal nonsense and unlikeable characters. Stupid ending.

I had a hard time figuring out where all the plot lines would meet at the end, and unfortunately, my guess was right and it turned out to be smashed in a rushed ending. Disappointing.

Das Privileg ist ein Horror, Mystery und Thriller von Felix Fuchssteiner und Katharina Schöde… Finns Schwester ist durch einen Sturz in die Tiefe gestorben, als er noch ein Kind war. Nun ist er 18 Jahre alt und er muss immer wieder an dieses schreckliche Ereignis denken… Ein solider Teenager-Horrorfilm mit einigen Science-Fiction Elementen… Eine anständige Geschichte, die ihre Geheimnisse nach und nach preisgibt… mit einer überdurchschnittlich guten schauspielerischen Leistung… Kurz gesagt, der Film hat mich unterhalten…

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

Diferente. Al principio es medio confusa pero cuando va tomando forma y se explica lo que sucede tiene mas sentido (aunque la explicación sea bastante floja). La caratularía mas como suspenso que terror.

Primo 1

A convoluted, confused, scheiße of a movie that suffered from an annoying, multiple themes disorder. Quoting a line from the sublime movie Amadeus " There is simply too many notes". The script borrows heavily from other superior, horror classics, failing to fit the many pieces, never able to come into its own. The scariest part of the film is that it promises a sequel, the only original part that made any sense was the threesome. I conclude that "Das Privileg" will leave you with an assured feeling of bitter bafflement.
