Critics Consensus

With Evil Eye, directors Elan and Rajeev Dassani spy a premise that has no shortage of potential, but despite the efforts of a game cast, it remains tantalizingly unfulfilled.

It's a pleasure to see Sarita Choudhary in a substantive part. Hopefully, we will see more of her, in something more credible.

Rated: 2/5

Al Horner

Empire Magazine

A small but neatly formed horror oddity that prises suspense out of a familiar parental worry: is the person my child has fallen in love with who they say they are?

AV Club

There's a faint, unfortunate whiff of Tyler Perry melodrama to the deadly dull Evil Eye.

An okay film, but certainly not in terms of something billed as a thriller.

I found my mind wandering as I waited for the inevitable twist. You know, the ones that have come with every “Welcome to Blumhouse” film so far.

We Live Entertainment

The emotional impact of the story is blunted by underdeveloped characters, a muddled climax, and a frustrating lack of action.

Camera crew were spot on in every scene especially the underwater shots. The film could've delivered a little more details to the back story concerning Sandeep, Usha and Krishnan's characters.

I just signed up here at rotten tomatoes to state what an absolutely ridiculous movie this is. It's way beyond the point of 'it's so bad that it is good again'..it is just bad.

I expected more from this. I was disappointed. I don't even know where to begin with the criticism... Just re-do the whole thing.

Evil Eye is the weakest of the four entries in Welcome to the Blumhouse. Good portrayals of a culture not seen enough in mainstream Hollywood can't save it. It's all too predictable, with reincarnated cheese on the side.
