Critics Consensus

Smart, well-acted, and suitably chilling, Scare Me uses its familiar horror setting as the backdrop for a fresh deconstruction of standard genre ingredients.

it's easy to get swept up in the ride, if not the scares... Even if viewers never entirely lose themselves into these stories, they can at least feel like they're fully in on the joke.

"Scare Me" packs ambitious ideas inside a small-scale concept.

Scare Me is an exceptionally funny movie, but it’s also (crucially) not solely a comedy.

Though it runs out of steam at times, Scare Me is a smart meta-commentary on horror films that tackles serious issues with wry humor.

Might have been better served as a series of shorts rather than an overlong and disjointed movie.

Well thought out, with a message men don't like to tell.

This movie plays with tension and humor so well. I've never seen a movie like this. If you love horror and can lose yourself in a world you can't ever seem to trust, watch it.

Not only are the stories boring the performances weren't believable either. It wasn't funny at all. Terrible movie. Tim Treakle

It's pretty annoying in my view, but better made than much of the other dreck out there. Could be worse, sadly.

Basically a rom-com with actual sharp performances enacting horrific tropes with an efficient setting that atmospherically turned out flat unless you enjoy the talentedly cheesy hybrid and allow this endeavor to open up to heightened thrillers possibility. The typically fatal twist builds up psychologically affective onto the bonding pair, equipped with layered agendas and sensibilities, towards the final humorous chagrined knot. (B-)
