Critics Consensus

Marrowbone's effective setting and strong cast can't make up for thinly conceived characters and a story short on genuine scares.

Sara Michelle Fetters

MovieFreak.com

It is a sensational piece of genre subterfuge, the narrative an increasingly byzantine maze overflowing in deft twists and turns.

Rated: 3.5/4

Irish Times

There are reminders here - as there were in the recent Irish horror The Lodgers - that the haunted house movie still contains possibilities. Neither will it, however, keep you awake at night like The Orphanage.

Rated: 3/5

Time Out

The Wolfman Cometh

Ready Steady Cut

Four siblings move to America with their mother in sunny 1969, make a new friend, and live in a creaky old house. Go watch it before you read anything else.

Flickering Myth

The Others is the most obvious touchstone and comparison point and, while Sánchez doesn't come close to that level of artistry, his film showcases a real mastery of tone.

Rated: 3/5

You can't have a modern horror movie without Mia Goth. As the movie progressed, the plot became clearer, but overall it was pretty boring. The horror element was minimal, but it was very well acted and the relationship between the characters was very wholesome. I'd say this is more for drama fans than it is for horror or thriller fans.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

Well-regarded for its surprising twist, Marrowbone's undone by its contrived execution, diluting any potential nuance, resulting in a muddled mix of clichés and frights.

Great cast, great looking film. The story is interesting but it does turn into well this does not make sense.

I was crying after I finished watching this movie. The way it encapsulates the complexities of human mind is jaw-dropping. It had me ponder that yes, we are all hurt and scarred, but some of us carry such indescribable pain not everyone could ever fully understand.
