Critics Consensus

Haunt is spooked by the spirits of its obvious influences, but still packs enough thrills and chills to satisfy horror fans up for a haunted house excursion.

Haunt ends up being a well-plotted, suitably sinister little shocker that proves to pack an agreeably malevolent little punch.

Rated: 3/4

Bloody Disgusting

Influences of The Funhouse, The Strangers, and even Saw are all woven throughout, but without the innovation or imaginative set pieces that made those movies memorable. Despite what the premise suggests, there's nothing "extreme" about this haunt.

Rated: 2/5

Bloody Disgusting

The third act comes across as a touch too rushed and cleanly wrapped up, but to those people who hope to escape their own haunted houses, it’s surely the type of ending they can take delight in.

Rated: 3.5/5

Deep Focus Review

Although I've seen plenty of horror movies with similar plotting and more compelling characters, few slashers have disturbed me, and continue to disturb me, as much as Haunt.

Rated: 3/4

There are basically three story elements here and they never join forces...[which] makes the whole movie feel kinda pointless.

The kind of classic slasher movie you would expect from decades ago, but with enough modern flair. This is a definite watch, especially during the halloween season

Teeth clenching, edge of your seat type of movie!! If you like thrill, suspense and just pure whole body tensing scares, this movie is for you. Great story and character development, non clich moments. This will definitely be turning into a must see during Halloween season movie. GO SEE IT!!!

Whoa! Delivers what it promises. Disturbing, tense, and violent. Pretty skilled direction, worth a watch if you desire a nightmarish time.

This movie is amazing, I love the way the movie plays with your emotions, It is able to make you think that everything is done and the launches more "action". I felt like an emotional roll coaster whole the time I couldn't get off. I definitely recommend it

Haunt - 7.5/10. Considering Heretic was one of my fave films of 2024, I wanted to look at the film that helped make this director duo get on the map. I saw 65 (which is pretty bland and mediocre to be honest), so I had lower expectations with this. Along with the Letterboxd score, I was expecting something bad. But, to my nice surprise, this was pretty decent! Sure, there’s a lot of inspiration from other franchises and films, but what I liked most about this film was that for the money they had, they utilized it oh so well. Haunt is an extreme haunted house film, where a bunch of people go in expecting light scares. Unbeknownst to them, they’re in for a fight to the death. Though the cast is relatively unknown actors (fun fact, the lead actress in this movie actually was in the top 10 in an American Idol season), they surprisingly are pretty convincing here. The lines are a little bit cheesy (the “I grew up in a haunted house” line was lame in my opinion), but the direction is pretty solid. Forward and straight to the point, this was actually not bad and a fun watch! A bloody thrilling time!

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars
