Her...hunger for connection to anything makes her the perfect vessel both for the audience and the horrors she unwittingly unleashes. She’s the meek...voice for genuine desire amid a...culture bent on maintaining...perfection only at the surface level.

The visual structure is as neat as a pin that’s about to be plunged into the middle of your forehead.

Rated: 9/10

Morbidly Beautiful

It's a deliciously spooky and innovative found-footage film that doubles as a social horror for those seeking more thought-provoking fare. Between the lead's mesmerizing performance and the atmospheric terror, this film kept me on the edge of my seat.

Rated: 4/5

Mind Body Spirit is a frightening blend of horror subgenres that gives a look behind the curtain of influencer culture and mental health struggles.

Rated: 7/10

Moviegoing with Bill

Gimmicky without being exploitative, a trip into the pathetic and lost self, Mind Body Spirit’s small scale opens up enough to be compelling and tense - at least here and there.

Rated: 3/5

The film creates a consistent feeling of dread that never registers as cheap or gimmicky.

I'm really salty at the score for tricking me into watching this and like other audience reviewers I am fully suspicious of how and why this movie has such a high rating. The main actress is unbearably annoying. The plot is nothing and still somehow full of holes. The special effects are laughable. The whole thing is just ridiculous. I'm angry to have seen it.

This is exactly why nobody takes RT ratings seriously anymore. The fact THIS movie is in the 90s shows that the system is broken. Drawn out nonsensical horror tropes done just painfully slow and boring. And I don’t know if the main actress was aiming for being the most annoying person alive that you don’t want to listen to for 5 minutes, but if she was - Well done, ma’am. You nailed it.

Pulling ideas from films like Hereditary and Paranormal Activity, "Mind, Body & Spirit" is a neat and compelling set-up that unfortunate pulls it's punches a little too much when it's finally given the opportunity to really wow the audience. Not bad but not great, a decent enough horror film that doesn't quite make use of everything at it's disposal... 6.2/10.

A great balance of genuine scares as well as some well-earned laughter in some funny moments. Highly recommend this indie found footage horror!

A fresh found footage horror that capitalizes on the satire influencer & social media culture we're familiar with today. The performances perfectly capture how overbearing wellness culture has been commodified, and that we'll go through sinister lengths to become a better of ourselves--perhaps another person entirely.

It’s difficult to take RT seriously when a horror movie of this low quality can solicit a critical score in the 90s. Indie horror is overhyped, with what feels like contempt for horror audiences. And only horrorphiles would be rummaging deep enough through a genre bargain bin to find Mind Body Spirit. I wanted to like this, but as other reviewers noted: it’s boring. And deathly predictable. Skip.
