Mean Spirited is that gem we spend literal hours sifting for, and even with some challenges, it’s a fun, funny, and genuinely scary film with some clever angles that elevate it from the pack.

Rated: 3.5/5

Mean Spirited disappoints as both an unfunny satire and unscary thriller...

A smart, savvy entry into the found footage genre.

Paste Magazine

Jeff Ryan’s Mean Spirited voices relevant and vile concerns about social media soullessness, but its commentary is neutered by shaky execution.

Rated: 5.0/10

The AU Review

Mean Spirited is a purposefully awkward comedic scarer that furthers (Jeff) Ryan’s hold as a filmmaker unafraid to put his ego aside for the sake of entertainment.

Rated: 3.5/5

Using the obnoxious vlogger approach, Mean Spirited raises slightly above the usual found footage movie.

Rated: 3/5

One of the worst films u cd imagine. Every cliche. Stupid story. Bad acting. Self-indulgent. Awful. Avoid at all costs.

Super fun horror comedy with some great laughs and decent scares. Moves along at a good pace and the just likeable enough characters keep things moving so you never get bored.
