For a mess, it's lively. But from Saulnier we'd have liked something more.

Rated: 3/5

Its go-for-broke horror aesthetic a real world cavalcade of terror that had me noticeably shaking long after the film itself had come to an end.

Rated: 3.5/4

London Evening Standard

How can you resist a film that, metaphorically, throws Simon & Garfunkel, Fugazi and Slayer into the same moshpit?

Rated: 3/5

The Stranger (Seattle, WA)

Everyone in the main ensemble delivers powerful performances, but Patrick Stewart is particularly chilling as the aloof white supremacist bar owner Darcy.

Committed performances, sharp dialogue, a gripping blend of the visceral and the heartfelt, and a credible sense of authenticity all add up to deliver an indie-grindcore night out to remember.

Rated: 5/5

Always loved this movie but major major drawbacks are the unintelligible language between the skinheads, can’t understand a single sentence when they talk to each other and the strange whispering between each other half the time

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

It was a little too dark. Literally. There were only 2 cool kills. 2.5*

I really am very unsure why this movie scored such a high rating. The good things about it were the tension; the gruesome kills; action and the outline of the story. It had a good premise. However, I dislike a movie that have protagonists that have been written to be incredibly foolish and make abysmal decisions. I love Anton Yelchin's work (RIP Anton) such as Star Trek: into Darkness and Odd Thomas. However, he was unrecognisable in the film as a mumbling stoner punk rocker. He makes one bad decision after another that lead to distastrous consequences. His friends were not that likeable so I didn't care if they all passed or not. The cinematography was strong and the stakes were always high. Patrick Stewart got very little to do in this and as the villain was not even allowed to deliver a sinister monologue or statement. In horror movies you need to be able to root for the survivors. If you dislike them, then it's wasted hour and a half. I don't understand the high rating.
