Deadliest of all, “Fear” is just not scary. The jump scares don’t land, the fears themselves are all a bit silly and it feels like Taylor is holding back for the majority of the run time. Go to Full Review Richard Roeper Chicago Sun-Times 01/27/2023
3/4
A wonderfully nasty film that revels in its lack of originality... Go to Full Review Matthew Monagle Austin Chronicle 01/26/2023
1.5/5
It is frustrating to watch Fear carelessly oscillate between creature feature, haunted house movie, and folk horror. Go to Full Review Paul Lê Bloody Disgusting 07/21/2023
2.5/5
Not everyone will want to watch another Pandemic horror movie anytime soon, particularly one that tries to contextualize this period and its zeitgeist using dreadful imagery and barely disguised metaphors. Go to Full Review Carla Hay Culture Mix 02/13/2023
With a COVID-19 pandemic theme, the horror flick Fear is an idiotic time waster with a muddled story, tacky visual effects, and weak ideas that are ripoffs of better-made horror films. Avoid this boring junk. Go to Full Review Jeffrey M. Anderson Common Sense Media 02/08/2023
2/5
Despite a diverse cast and a nifty location, this soggy, inert horror movie unfolds with a most unimaginative collection of worn-out genre staples, starting with its bland title. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Dwight T 09/26/2024 Love the cast and the plot. From beginning to end I was engaged throughout the movie. High quality cinematography brought the scenes to life. Great horror movie 🎥 🍿🍿🍿 See more Clownsaregangsta 03/10/2023 to be honest this may have won my heart for best picture of the year. the kind of movie when the butter to salt ratio on the popcorn hit just right. See more Keisha 03/08/2023 Storyline was not that great BUT the actors were great! See more Ty S 02/12/2023 This movie was terrible! It had potential to be good but the plot had so many wholes, the acting was not good, and the effects were the worst part. Cant believe I paid to see this. See more Eva S 02/11/2023 Cliche, predictable, very low budget movie. no story at all. special effects looked like someone did it on their phone See more Dia 02/09/2023 Poorly executed plot, disconnected interaction/chemistry with actors, and just odd.
