Critics Consensus

Smart, stylish, and nail-bitingly tense, Honeymoon packs more slow-building horror than many bigger-budget productions.

Perri Nemiroff

Screen Rant

Janiak does find a great deal of success turning that dreamy romance on its head, plunging her leads into a nightmarish scenario and ensuring you'll never forget what happened to them.

AV Club

For those who have ever nursed suspicions that the answer is "not enough," Honeymoon will inspire chills much more bone-deep than the ones provoked by, say, some poltergeist flinging around chairs.

Mark Kermode

Observer (UK)

Janiak's directorial debut makes confident use of limited resources to conjure creepy thrills, peering through the cracks in the couple's imploding relationship, spying shadowy monsters lurking in the darkness.

Patrick Cavanaugh

The Wolfman Cometh

Horror films focusing on alien intruders can often only be so effective, and while Honeymoon isn't a complete success, the lead performances and Leigh Janiak's direction manage to elevate a story that would be otherwise dismissed.

Honeymoon is a twisted, unpredictable horror thriller that will leave you shocked in the end.

In Their Own League

Leigh Janiak creates a film that's quite visually disturbing at times, ensuring you'll squirm by the end, but it is also heavy with despair and desperation.

Slow burning and ultimately disappointing. The movie is set up as if it's an alien abduction film but ultimately ends up being about the breakdown of a relationship. 98% relationship dramas and 2% aliens.

Even 10 years later it’s really a disturbing, psychologically unnerving film about holy matrimony and how it starts to fall apart the cast is unknown but this couple couldn't be happier after just getting married and spending a quiet weekend at the lake in the woods unfortunately, things start to get strange when Bea goes into the woods one night and ends up with strange corrosions on her thighs her husband Paul is desperate to find an answer of what happened this movie makes you flinch once you see the reveal of the trauma caused but thankfully this sort-of-low-budget flick uses dark shadows, bright lights, and thoughts that go back and forth was it a stranger? a monster? an alien? or a ghost? it's very sad seeing this couple go at each other's throats deciding what's the bigger concern another rare gem of a horror movie that doesn't have to get by using cheap scare tactics and big special effects the mind is a scary place when you start to doubt who your significant other is and why they are that way with it being just the two of them things spiral out of control in their relationship a creepy crawler of a movie

Don't waste your time. It was awful. I'd rather go to the dentist.

Not a terrible film by any means, but too much setup and not enough payoff equals a rather unsatisfying experience.

Acting was awkward and amateur, accents were awful. Dialogue was cheesy and unrealistic. Plot was dragged out and frustrating.
