If the drama and the derangement don’t quite mesh, it’s still a surprisingly affecting love letter to the season and those who live for it.

It’s the exact right mix of horror and comedy, of professional scare folks and low-ish budget that helps create something truly fun and entertaining.

Ultimately, some gruesome kills and genuinely funny moments make Haunt Season a great start to the Halloween season.

The movie works best as a drama, not a slasher.

There’s an interesting idea to Haunt Season. If it wasn't so bogged down by its commitment to being a run-of-the-mill slasher horror, it could have been something really new and fresh.

Rated: 5/10

Deep Focus Review

Admittedly, this is a subgenre that fascinates and scares me, and leaves me dreading my next visit to a haunted house, hayride, or theme park. Fans of this sort of thing may enjoy its modest pleasures.

Rated: 3/4

Ok, now I thought it must be one of those typical B-type straight-to-stream movies, but this exceeded my expectations...It's an awesome movie, not a horror, but a typical fun drama comedy that takes place around a haunt... A must watch!!!

Abysmal. Truly Not a horror movie, not a thriller. Kind of like a Lifetime movie that takes place during Halloween season where a few people happen to get murdered. I literally laughed out loud when I saw the audience rating on this. Not only is it not 97% good, it’s much more like the inverse of that. The real murdering was done by the people posing as actors in this thing. I mean, it’s clear that RT has fallen to the unfortunate gaming of the system by friends/family falsely kicking up the ratings but all the fake reviews in the world isn’t going to change the fact that the writing, plot, acting and dialogue are high school drama club level. Sorry but it’s true. I’ve no axe to grind, I just hate faked ratings that trick people into watching a movie that’s literally unbearable to sit through. I love horror. I love horror films. This is like a bad Halloween episode of Saved by the Bell that just keeps going and going.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

I really enjoy this movie. It gave you the feel of Realm of Terror and what it’s like to work for a haunt. I loved that it was afraid to make fun of its self. Very enjoyable time.

Super duper fun. A tasteful slasher might seem like an oxymoron but it worked for me. Self-aware regarding its psychosexual themes but not over-wrought, and Adam Hinkle is a standout. Perfect low-stakes Halloween viewing.
