Ready Steady Cut

A modern slasher about a young woman starting a new life after a term in prison for trying to kill her serial killer boyfriend. Excellent psychological and gory fare from Padraig Reynolds.

Rated: 3.5/5

Despite a solid central performance from Grasse and some watchable gore-soaked sequences, Open 24 Hours buckles under the weight of trying to subvert expectations...

Rue Morgue Magazine

Reynolds prioritizes shock moments over psychological acuity, and occasional implausibilities--like the roomiest gas-station bathroom you'll ever see--don't help.

Flickering Myth

A pit-stop bloodbath that attempts various narrative tricks, yet follows in footsteps that've been worn flat-and-smooth by too many other indie horror filmmakers to count.

Rated: 2/5

Eye for Film

Issues arise with the script's reliance on coincidences and unlikely decisions, but if you're willing to bear with that, this is a great example of how to make an effective film with scant resources - and a film that has something to say.

Rated: 3/5

Cinema Crazed

Open 24 Hours is a good, tense film that is well-written, well-acted, and done with a good attention to detail.

Rated: 4/5

Distinctly awful. Clichéd, predictable and boring. If viewers are excited by pretty young women, stabbings and lots of crying they may find some excitement here.

The ending was a little lame, but the acting was good and overall very entertaining. The vast majority of horror movies especially slashers are far from epic. This was better than most and if you like this type of movie, it’s definitely worth 90 minutes of your time. I have no regrets watching it.

Good acting and cinematography but horrible plot and script. Too much Jason and Michael characterizations in this film thought I was watching Friday 13th or Halloween

I really liked this, confused to low score. The acting was very good and parts of the script were well written. Intense, gore was decent and well paced time in-between kills. I would recommend to any horror fan.

Well, the acting and photography were (mostly) decent. I'm not sure I understand the last scene, but I was thinking something completely different had actually happened throughout the story. It really did seem like everything happening was in her head, and she was the actual perpetrator. But the ending throws some doubt on that. If it turns out that everything on screen is what actually happened, then the story is dumb, sorry. It makes more sense, with her being on medication, if she is concocting a story in her mind to make herself feel less guilty.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars
