Christina Newland iNews.co.uk This is a worthwhile, twisty little thriller with some genuinely smart ideas within. Rated: 3/5 Sep 18, 2024 Full Review Kevin Maher Times (UK) An act of supernatural vengeance and a whoppingly crude metaphor for the western fashion industry’s shameful history of exploiting southeast Asian labour markets. If you insist on a message, it should be buried deeper than this. Rated: 2/5 Dec 9, 2022 Full Review Linda Marric The Jewish Chronicle I was once again impressed by Finnegan, and I suspect not for the last time. Rated: 4/5 Dec 9, 2022 Full Review Gemma Creagh Film Ireland Magazine The simplicity of Nocebo, the sharp, tense pacing, works well, making this a satisfying social commentary and an enjoyable watch. May 30, 2024 Full Review Savina Petkova A Good Movie To Watch Nocebo makes an effort to position itself on the right side of history, but the power of its political critique wanes and wanes. Rated: 7.1/10 Oct 29, 2023 Full Review Marshall Shaffer Decider What a waste of Eva Green in her scream queen bag. Oct 16, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

Murray C Intriguing horror thriller with an interesting pretext and held together by good performances. Although the plot becomes somewhat clunky as it becomes obvious what's going on, the switching between the UK and Fillipino scenes and some genuinely unsettling tropes make this a great watch. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/06/24 Full Review Corey K Interesting and original folklore with cool effects Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/05/24 Full Review Addison P Overall, "Nocebo" is a thought-provoking and atmospheric thriller that showcases strong performances and a unique premise. It might not cater to everyone's taste, particularly those looking for straightforward horror, but it undoubtedly leaves a lasting impression with its blend of psychological intrigue and cultural commentary. If you're in the mood for a film that challenges your perceptions and keeps you on edge, "Nocebo" is worth the watch. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/23/24 Full Review Nate K Even with a pretty predictable plot, some plot holes and slow pace, it's still a fun movie to watch with its cinematography and acting. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/09/24 Full Review D. C Eva Green's performance stands out. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/03/24 Full Review Emilliano Jr S Creepy, dark, breathe of fresh air for horror fans. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/29/23 Full Review Read all reviews
