Andy Webster New York Times The script, by Mr. Dekker, spirals into a muddle of ambiguity, leaving only the imagery and the performances to save the movie. And try as they might, they cannot. Oct 13, 2016 Full Review Noel Murray Los Angeles Times While the movie's artfully made and daringly disturbing, Dekker ultimately overestimates how many sick twists one motion picture needs. Oct 13, 2016 Full Review April Wolfe Village Voice What's more disappointing than the competing storylines is the emotional void created by these joyless characters. Oct 12, 2016 Full Review Patrick Cavanaugh The Wolfman Cometh Doesn't quite find the right tone between drama and horror, but still offers some effectively unsettling sequences. Rated: 3/5 May 12, 2023 Full Review Emilie Black Cinema Crazed The film looks great and has very good performances that grab you and make you want to see what happens next, how it ends. Rated: 4/5 Apr 19, 2020 Full Review Trace Thurman Bloody Disgusting There is no subtext in Jack Goes Home. It's just text. Nothing is left to the imagination. Rated: 2/5 Oct 31, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Scorsese's Taint 2 Rory Caulkin was interesting enough to make me sit through this dementia patients journal as a screenplay Rated 2 out of 5 stars 10/01/24 Full Review Miranda M There is a twist at the end but it makes no sense. The entire story the movie is built on is flawed if this twist is true. The main character wouldn't be at the house. The main character is not likable but his mother was awful so he never really stood a chance of coming out with a great personality. Also, why did they have to hurt the dog and kill him later on? That dog was my favourite character and the best friend. I was pausing this movie like crazy and finding excuses to leave. I made it through but definitely won't be watching it again. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/27/24 Full Review Melissa L This movie wass most excellent. It was well-acted, and I did not anticipate the ending. Ignore the tasteless ratings. I recommend you view it. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/23/24 Full Review meow I actually really enjoy the movie. it's good. just a couple parts I don't really like but other than that I really like it Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/09/23 Full Review Mothers M I would rip that suit right off him 😩 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/27/23 Full Review mia x Such a good plot twist. Acting is fabulous. I went through lots of emotions whilst watching. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
