Kathy Fennessy

Seattle Film Blog

Hollywood 90028 is a cynical, tough-minded film about sexism, misogyny, and the ways Hollywood grinds up strivers, like Mark and Michele, and spits them out.

Rated: 3.5/4

Eye for Film

Where serial killers have elsewhere tended to be treated as powerful individuals, even as heroic in their ability to throw off conditioning, here Mark emerges as a symptom of a more deeply troubled society.

Rated: 3.5/5

This is a masterful first feature. A haunting thriller that stands proudly alongside other depictions of life on the street in Los Angeles.

Rated: 5/5

Cool People Have Feelings, Too. (Substack)

A fantastic addition to the L.A. hates itself cannon. A bleak exploration of the misogyny and violence inherent in the movie business via the story of an actual violent murderer. . .who just happens to make movies.

Sean Burns

North Shore Movies

A mournful story of lost souls in the guise of a scummy slasher picture.

Reeling Reviews

While many have praised the film as some kind of lost masterpiece, in reality it’s more of an exploitation film with lots of montage and few synced sound scenes...mainly of interest for its depiction of an L.A. which no longer exists

Rated: C+
