What to Know

Critics Consensus

Nekrotonic has plenty of oddball energy, but this horror-comedy hybrid mashes up ingredients without much of a clear idea of what to do with them.

Sara Michelle Fetters MovieFreak.com Nekrotronic is a bizarre, fast-paced hoot, its slapdash devil-may-care storytelling dynamics oddly working for me more often than they did not. Rated: 2.5/4 Aug 18, 2019 Full Review Noel Murray Los Angeles Times "Nekrotronic" is "fun," but often in an off-putting, aggressive way. The Roache-Turners have prioritized fleeting moments of gross-out humor and special-effects dazzle over a controlled pace, or careful world-building. Aug 8, 2019 Full Review Stephen Dalton The Hollywood Reporter This bloodthirsty comic-book fantasy is let down by its infantile humor and derivative, incoherent plot. Oct 1, 2018 Full Review Elsa Fernández-Santos El Pais (Spain) A funny and familiar film. [Full Review in Spanish] Aug 31, 2020 Full Review Roger Salvans Fotogramas Nekrotronic is a laugh riot, full of surprises, allusions, and tributes. [Full Review in Spanish] Rated: 3/5 Aug 27, 2020 Full Review Carlos Marañón Cinemanía (Spain) There are many loose ends.

Robert M Nekrotronic is an absolute blast from start to finish, a riotous and imaginative ride that defies easy categorization and embraces its delightfully bonkers premise with infectious enthusiasm. From the opening scene, you're pulled into a vibrant, neon-soaked world where demonic entities are battling a ragtag group of demon hunters, and the stakes, while hilariously over-the-top, feel genuinely engaging. The film expertly blends action, horror, and comedy, often within the same breath, creating a unique tone that is both genuinely thrilling and laugh-out-loud funny. The practical effects are a standout, adding a tactile, visceral quality to the monstrous creations that CGI often struggles to replicate. It's clear a lot of love and craftsmanship went into bringing these creatures to life, and the result is both gruesome and gleefully inventive. The cast, particularly Monica Bellucci, leans into the absurdity with gusto, delivering performances that are both committed and charismatic. Bellucci, in particular, is a scene-stealer, exuding a captivating blend of menace and magnetic allure. The script, while certainly not adhering to conventional narrative structures, offers enough twists and turns to keep you on your toes, and the pacing is relentless, ensuring there's never a dull moment. This isn't a film that takes itself too seriously, and that's precisely its strength. It invites you to surrender to its wild imagination and enjoy the ride, and for those willing to do so, Nekrotronic delivers a truly memorable and highly entertaining cinematic experience. It's a cult classic in the making, a testament to indie filmmaking with a vision and the guts to execute it with unbridled creativity. Don't go in expecting a run-of-the-mill horror film; instead, prepare for a joyous, gory, and genuinely hilarious romp that will leave you grinning from ear to ear. Nekrotronic is a vibrant, audacious, and endlessly entertaining piece of genre cinema that truly stands out from the crowd. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/19/25 Full Review Claudio C Nekrotronic (2018) So Bad and Messy That Is Funny (11,648 – 27 Apr 2025 - by Claudio Carvalho) There are films that are awful to watch so bad they are. However, the trash “Nekrotronic” (2018) is so bad and messy that is funny to see. The plot is a mess, with the story of people possessed by demons through the Internet, and fighters with the power of defeating them. The “hero” is a crap collector, who drives a truck and has the power of hunting down demons. He is helped by the ghost of his best friend, and two young women. The powerful enemy is his mother, played by Monica Bellucci (still beautiful). This film seems to be a homage to the Troma Entertainment. My vote is four. Title (Brazil): “Nekrotronic” My Blog: https://maniacosporfilme.wordpress.com/ Rated 2 out of 5 stars 04/28/25 Full Review mark g Great lead, lots of comic gems, good special effects. I found this a pretty entertaining movie with great production. Not following the negative reviews. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/17/25 Full Review Edward B Thought it had a lot of good humor that made it work Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/22/23 Full Review Matt N "Ghostbusters" meets the "Matrix" with a little twist of Edgar Wright style humor for good measure. I thought this one was a lot of fun. Some good action, likable characters that were fun to root for, and scene chewing villains that you loved to hate. The actors seemed like they had a good time making this movie, and I had a good time watching it. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/02/23 Full Review Brianna G Definitely goofy, but in a good way! And much more silly than scary but still pretty entertaining. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/03/23 Full Review Read all reviews
