Critics Consensus

Proof that there's still life in the found-footage gimmick, Deadstream is a scarily good bit of B-movie fun.

It's hard not to begrudgingly admire a film as committed to its deliriously silly bit as Deadstream.

Rated: 2.5/4

Guardian

This comic horror romp has no pretensions and seeks only to goof around and dole out a few jump scares, but in its own sly way it offers a Gen Z version of The Blair Witch Project.

Rated: 3/5

Slant Magazine

The film doesn’t quite live up to its promising premise and handful of clever camera gimmicks.

Rated: 2/4

With an ending as unsatisfying as the one they went with in this feature, I’d say Deadstream is an overall disappointment.

Rated: 2/5

Ghouls Magazine

Deadstream is a fun and light-hearted horror that utilises found footage expertly, bringing the medium into the social media era in an extremely believable way.

Rated: 5/5

B-Sides & Badlands

Very few found footage films delicately balance between humor and horror with such precision like Deadstream. It is this year’s Host — a bonafide blockbuster that’s able to send chills down your spine one moment and make you bust out laughing the next.

Rated: 5/5

This movie was so bad it made me create a Rotten Tomatoes account just to write this. This was so terrible that it's painful to even give it half a star. It was already last on my watch list anyway judging by the trailer, we watched it early and the only positive thing to happen out of this whole experience is that it is now over.

Silly, over-the-top and surprisingly effective, Deadstream is a a solid horror comedy that's a really good time at the movies, with heart and panache!

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Kind of a found-footage Evil Dead for the age of the problematic YouTube star. Quite silly, often sophomoric, but ultimately fairly satisfying.

Loved every minute of this. Only reason I didn't give this a 5 star was due to the poor makeup on some of the characters. Intentional or not I wasn't a fan of it.

This movie is my favorite horror movie of all time. It is so well done and has such a unique story. The plot and characters are incredible and the story and just the movie itself is so well done. I think that the quality and layout of this movie really succeeded in the horror genre. It fits perfectly and it seems like this movie should be a higher rated movie. It is so incredible and the creators did an excellent job and there is no really unrealistic part in it. It is all so amazing. Great job, guys.

If you like goofy horror movie parodies like “scary movie” this is for you. If you’re coming for horror this is not the one.
