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

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

I was waiting for the horror to start but it never really does. The main character never dropped the influencer voice it was insufferable. The only funny thing about it was how bad it was.

Divertidamente aterradora, sin duda alguna se volvió de mis películas favoritas de terror.

It went from goofy, to legit scary, to goofy, to scary again. Haven't had this much fun watching a horror movie in a while. The main character is just good enough that you both love him and hate him at the same time. And the effects make this even better because they seem to be mostly practical. Recommended!
