Jason Delgado Film Threat Séance may not freak you out as much as some scary movies, but it’s got more relationship drama than a Taylor Swift song, in a good way. Rated: 8.5/10 Nov 13, 2024 Full Review Ronak Kotecha ReviewRon Séance doesn’t entirely succeed at matching the gravitas of those classics. But, at the very least, this is a fitting tribute to the Halloween season Rated: 3/5 Nov 5, 2024 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Engaging mystery story. Rated: B+ Nov 1, 2024 Full Review Jared Mobarak Hey, Have You Seen ...? Kerr simply has a knack for making sure their duplicitous natures are sympathetic enough to accept their plight before finally pulling the rug to show one’s actions are truly unforgivable. Rated: 7/10 Oct 25, 2024 Full Review Eddie Harrison film-authority.com …what differentiates Seance from the pack is a refusal to slip into jump-scares and cliches... the story is worked out in a disciplined and organised manner, never succumbing to melodrama, but exploring the idea of gaslighting in a mature, thoughtful way… Rated: 4/5 Oct 25, 2024 Full Review Shikhar Verma High on Films A low-on-thrills chamber piece that works more as a drama about desire, grief, and toxic masculinity than something that will scare the daylights out of you. Rated: 2.5/5 Oct 24, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
