Dread Central

This tale of a satanic cult is hindered from start to finish by amateur performances.

Rated: 2/5

Felix Vasquez Jr.

Cinema Crazed

Eric Boccio and co. have all the ingredients for one gnarly Satanic horror thriller, they just never quite coalesce in to an entertaining genre entry.

Rated: 6/10

THN

A bloody and brutal opening quickly descends into repetition, and a slew of pacing and tonal errors cause Night of the Bastard to stumble.

Rated: 2/5

Anton Bitel

Projected Figures

a classic confrontation between good and evil, presented as a close, bloody scrap in the desert, where the mundane and the mythic meet on the horizon, and where even demonic destiny can be damned to hell.
