Alan Ng Film Threat If you’re in the mood for tension, blood, and chaos, this indie thriller might be your next Halloween watch. Rated: 7.5/10 Jan 13, 2025 Full Review Emilie Black Cinema Crazed He Never Left attempts to do something different with the slasher genre and at times it works, but overall, the film ends up a bit forgettable which is unfortunate. There is talent here but it doesn’t seem to be used to the best of its potential. Dec 28, 2024 Full Review C.H. Newell Father Son Holy Gore Morris’s film really could’ve been a solid addition to the slasher canon had it been tighter and kept its focus in the right(/bloody) places. Rated: 2/5 Dec 8, 2024 Full Review Joey Keogh Wicked Horror [Colin] Cunningham, a jobbing actor for over 30 years, makes absolute mincemeat out of a role that in less capable hands would come off grating, even downright insufferable. Dec 6, 2024 Full Review Norman Gidney HorrorBuzz Writers James Morris, Michael Ballif, and Colin Cunningham have too much fun with the “whodunnit” aspects of the story to deliver a satisfying slasher and they don’t offer not character development to deliver a satisfying mystery. Not all is lost, though. Rated: 7/10 Nov 29, 2024 Full Review Romey Norton Film Focus Online Overall, He Never Left offers its audience a psychological thriller about a man in turmoil. The tension and dilemma are strong enough to captivate audiences for the one-hour and thirty-minute runtime. Rated: 2.5/5 Nov 15, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Paul D. Surprisingly well made, written and acted mystery slasher flick. If you are a horror buff this is worth a watch. The characters are decently developed and the edgy editing and music push this above the average of indie horror films. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/03/25 Full Review Andy's E 2 youtubers recommended to watch this movie and im just wondering well its not a great movie, nothing really happens in this slow burn, last act is only reason i give this the rating Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 10/01/25 Full Review James B He never left is a great yet sometimes confusing B movie. The acting is really convincing and the gore looks really realistic. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/20/25 Full Review Joel P Lower case "b" movie. "Scary" acting and "frightening" dialogue is what this made for direct streaming movie offers. Don't be sucked in by the positive reviews: they are false and fake. At the about the 9 minute mark I knew this movie would suck, but stuck it out, apparently just to be sure and then warn others. You are warned!!! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/09/25 Full Review Troy V This movie is the truth you heard? No seriously it's a really good movie. In other words an anomaly in modern Hollywood. Good writing good story good acting! Bravo ! A pleasant deviation from the usual garbage AI stories Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/28/25 Full Review Torrie D. Sometimes you discover a little gem of a horror movie. The “Criminal” was a very sympathetic character and great acting. Story was original, some plot holes but all in all I really enjoyed this movie. So glad I didn’t bypass it judging by the previews. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/23/25 Full Review Read all reviews
