Honestly not as bad as I was expecting. I liked the premise of it- I do feel it was a little too in your face with the storyline and relation to real life events (based on internet challenges) it could have been more subtle for sure. The acting honestly was quite good! The scripting also didn't make me massively cringe in anyway, all in all I think it was a good pass of time, I wouldn't watch it again but definitely don't regret the time watching it. It wasn't actually scary (at least not to me) but I think could be a good one for non horror fans wanting an innocent scare.

I must say, was not a fan of this movie. Really it's a good idea, fairly decent story as long as you aren't opposed to new gen horror with technology as a major factor. But grimcutty, oh my jeez. I wish they had animated it to look more like the preview picture they showed, cause woof is it not scary in the slightest. I gotta give it some credit though because they really capture how anyone under the age of 18 is basically not seen as a person. No one believes you, no one listens, and sometimes being overly protective is what kids need protecting from. As I said I wasn't scared by the big bad of the movie, but I almost had a heart attack in some of the moments with the dad, very scary dude, and good acting on his part. All in all, a good horror movie to watch once, get some mild entertainment, and move on. Maybe it makes me biased that ASMR makes me extremely uncomfortable

This movies plot makes no sense, there is no motive, no reason for the things happening to happen, everyone in this movie is stupid. And the CGI monster looks worse than many special effects from the 70s and 80s

Grimcutty is a surprising, terrifying, fun creature feature, and beneath the skin, there’s an upsetting, pulsing heart of trauma and pain.

Decider

Grimcutty has a strong cast in its favor, and derives some scary-adjacent chills from setting its main baddie loose to grimly grab at teens in trouble.

Common Sense Media

Yes, parents and kids need to be mindful of the problems that can arise with technology and especially with the mental and emotional well-being of teens, but this goofy-looking monster and uneven story aren't the best vehicles to deliver that message.

Rated: 2/5

A comically out-of-touch Internet fable, Grimcutty is dull at best, borderline unwatchable at worst... About as enjoyable as eating Tide Pods.

Rated: 1/5

Without so much “on the nose” exposition, I might have left the film feeling more in awe, rather than feeling as if I had left a class lecture.

Stick your landing, not your opening—Grimcutty works itself backward into a forgettable cyber-folktale fate.
