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

Assignment X

He Never Left has unusually good production values for a movie that looks like it was made on a tight budget.

Screen Rant

James Morris' He Never Left proves to be an interesting twist on the Michael Myers legend, but unfortunately drops the ball in its final act.

Horrorverse

While the story might lack punch or purpose for some, others may gravitate towards its genre-flipping structure. If you're in the spooky mood for something unconventional (with minimal slashing), He Never Left just might scratch that itch.

What a Scream Podcast

He Never Left promises a retro-style slasher with a memorable masked antagonist, however despite commendable performances, fails to stick the landing.

Rated: 2/5

Sunshine State Cineplex

Too much exposition and references back to iconic movies leave it feeling like a knockoff. There are too many things that work to throw the baby out with the bathwater, which makes He Never Left frustrating.

Rated: 5/10
