Jourdain Searles Hollywood Reporter Maybe it’s enough that Hell of a Summer leaves us eagerly wondering what Bryk and Wolfhard will make next. Sep 18, 2023 Full Review Valerie Complex Deadline Hollywood Daily Hell of a Summer boast a cast that shines and two budding directors who showcase immense promise. Sep 16, 2023 Full Review Meagan Navarro Bloody Disgusting The directors’ acting backgrounds translate to an ensemble of entertaining and lively performances, though their debut is less effective in form and slasher thrills. Rated: 2.5/5 Sep 14, 2023 Full Review Louisa Moore Screen Zealots There are a few jokey gags, but the laughs that this camp slasher film needs are nowhere to be found. Nov 14, 2023 Full Review Justine Smith Cult MTL If Hell of a Summer fails, it’s almost exclusively due to a lack of ambition. Oct 6, 2023 Full Review Amanda Mazzillo Film Inquiry Hell of a Summer is a campy blast of a film, blending the nostalgia of 80s camp slashers with coming-of-age teen comedies.
