Aldis H Strange mix of what people would call a strong 80s aesthetic, which I'm completely sick of, and some super amateurish writing. Whoever wrote this knows nothing about synthesizers, and the narrative is uneven and mostly unaffecting, with some stinker dialogue. How this gets good reviews is beyond me. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 05/13/25 Full Review Scott M This movie made me extremely uncomfortable, and I mean that as the highest of compliments. It’s not a horror movie in the traditional sense, but more of a twisted thriller that bleeds into horror territory simply by virtue of how deeply disturbing and creepy it is throughout. The film is permeated with an unsettling, disorienting vibe, conveyed through its camerawork, soundtrack, and ever-so-slightly off-kilter acting, that makes your skin crawl, even during its most innocuous scenes. The retro, lo-fi aesthetic only adds to the unease, lending the entire film a nightmarish surreality rarely found in modern horror. While it may prove too unpleasant or sadistic for casual viewers, genre enthusiasts will find plenty to appreciate in Dead Mail. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/09/25 Full Review Adam S Shudder released this in April, and it earned a 5/5 rating from me, a First for this year. A phenomenal psychological horror. This film was utterly engrossing. My top horror film of 2025 thus far! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #DeadMail Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/05/25 Full Review Logan D A business partnership sparks a series of events leading to a dead letter office. Set in the 80s, this film appears to have been recorded on glossy magazine paper. I perfectly captures the atmosphere of that time and features a thematically chimeric narrative. This is a good film period let alone one produced on such a small budget. Sadly, the most interesting character is featured all too briefly. And that security guard's response? Yeah, more characters should do so! Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/04/25 Full Review Michael N Pleasantly surprised! I loved the aesthetic and music. The production design, cinematography, and editing were on point for this gripping period piece. I would revisit it down the line. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/29/25 Full Review Sus F This movie is very clever. It is a slow burn yet you don't want to miss anything. The acting is fantastic. The dialog and filming are done in 80s style. It may be hard for some to follow at first. But hey, stop ripping it apart and watch and listen and put yourselves in each character's situation. The pop ups during the credits make it even better!!!!! Loved it. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/28/25 Full Review Read all reviews
