Kenneth Seward Jr. But Why Tho? A Geek Community 13h
5/10
It also features decent cinematography and a strong performance from Elizabeth Cullen. However, the muddled plot, conflicting messaging, and tame jump scares ruin just about everything else. Go to Full Review Matthew Jackson Bloody Disgusting 22h
3.5/5
It’s a film that struggles a bit with its execution, but by the end, it’s stuck the landing so thoroughly that you basically forget the flaws are there, leaving you with memories of great scares and some truly brutal kills. Go to Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies 23h
2/5
A movie that has the right setting and develops the right tone, but that lacks the narrative freshness or genre punch to stand out from the crowd. Go to Full Review Casey Chong Casey's Movie Mania 1d
3/5
Elizabeth Cullen anchors Daniel J. Phillips' atmospheric religious horror. Go to Full Review Tessa Smith Mama's Geeky 1d
Elizabeth Cullen shines in this indie horror. A bloody, gnarly clash between fundamentalism and a vengeful witch that's flawed but effective. Go to Full Review Mark Keizer MovieWeb 2d
2/5
