Richard Whittaker Austin Chronicle Mother of Flies has a hypnotic quality never quite present in their prior films, a sensation like falling, and much of it is created by John’s transitions and juxtapositions. Oct 20, 2025 Full Review Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com These creators are talented in every way one can use that word, and that would be true even if they weren’t working with their most loved ones. Sep 24, 2025 Full Review Clint Worthington RogerEbert.com It’s a somber, meditative chamber piece, albeit one soaked in wood and blood and philosophical musings on the nature of death Aug 22, 2025 Full Review Allan Hunter Screen International A polished horror yarn that leads to a satisfying conclusion, and leaves the impression there is more than enough material here for a potential prequel or an extension of Solveig’s story. Nov 26, 2025 Full Review Molly Henery The Blogging Banshee Mother of Flies is a deeply personal film for the Adams family, using folk horror to tell a beautiful story of life and death. Rated: 9/10 Nov 7, 2025 Full Review Rua Fay Cinemasters As it turns out, when you're looking for your creative dream team, sometimes you don't need to look any further than your own flesh and blood.
