It's always gratifying to find a horror movie that has the best of influences, and even more gratifying that it's an Irish crew of filmmakers that are making it all.

This is a well-crafted, tight 90 minutes that will keep viewers hooked and shows great potential from the up-and-coming filmmakers.

Ian Hunt-Duffy uses the limited setting to his advantage, escalating tension through the frayed sanity that can only come when someone stays awake much longer than they should.

3/5

This moody, claustrophobic chiller stretches its one good idea beyond breaking point -- but there is enough here to unnerve and, indeed, frighten even the most cynical participant.

With nail-biting suspense and a gripping, unpredictable plot, Double Blind maximizes its limited resources to create a tense, claustrophobic experience. The movie is properly paced and acted, merging elements of psychological thriller and survival horror successfully. It’s also effectively using its limited budget for high-impact scenes, allowing the tension to build without overstaying its welcome.

This is an exceptional psychological thriller. This would be my nightmare of doing a clinical trial.

I loved this movie—very unique and well done. The acting was great, and it kept my interest from start to finish. I really felt a strong closed-in, claustrophobic atmosphere throughout. It blends action with touches of horror in a way that works extremely well. Overall, a wonderful and memorable film.

Was pleasantly surprised at how scary it was. Even the idea they didn't know when they were drifting away... That's a creepy idea. Ugh, the jump scares?? So good. I enjoyed this movie.
