Alexandra Heller-Nicholas Fangoria It's a super tight screenplay, elegantly simple in its setup and production design, perfectly cast, and has the ideal balance of unrestrained viciousness and genuine hope Dec 12, 2021 Full Review Kat Hughes THN Luciana Pae gives a commanding performance as Sara, her journey from meek to empowered is riveting to behold. Her arc is a true chrysalis story, and watching Pae work her way through the changes is a compelling watch. Rated: 3/5 Aug 23, 2018 Full Review Anton Bitel SciFiNow in Friendly Beast, food ultimately is art, the carving of red meat is all, and sex and death are dishes served very bloody. Human horror this confronting is rare indeed. Mar 13, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews
