Ben Turner The Pink Lens Apart from some adventurous editing that *sometimes* makes for intriguing viewing, the rest of Seat In Shadow is nothing less than a barely watchable muddle of whingeing irritating narcissists. Rated: 2/5 Sep 2, 2021 Full Review Laura Davis One Room With A View More eccentric and Glaswegian than its forebear. Rated: 3/5 Mar 5, 2019 Full Review Alexander Ryll Gay Essential Henry Coombes' Seat In Shadow explores the dark, unsettling aspects of the human psyche and is in itself a fairly memorable psychedelic experience. Rated: 8 Nov 3, 2018 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film Seat In Shadow is not entirely successful but there's a lot to recommend it, and fans of Sillars' work will be in for a treat. Rated: 3.5/5 Sep 7, 2017 Full Review Read all reviews
