Patrick Cavanaugh The Wolfman Cometh A slimy and squishy experience that would have been even stronger with a more concise critique on technology. Rated: 3/5 Feb 6, 2021 Full Review Emilie Black Cinema Crazed Sequence Break has multiple themes and influences all layering in a way that creates an interesting story that digs deep into the psyche of its lead and doesn't give everything away or explain everything. Rated: 4.5/5 Apr 17, 2020 Full Review Joey Keogh Wicked Horror Sequence Break is an inspired, skin-crawlingly unnerving and attention-grabbing debut. Rated: 9/10 Oct 4, 2019 Full Review Andrew Wyatt The Lens The performances are clunky as heck, and a late-game story swerve feels like a failed, Hail Mary attempt to save the film from its own shapeless, repetitive, and nonsensical plot. Rated: D+ Dec 7, 2018 Full Review Patrick Bromley Daily Dead A film with some big ideas about generational malaise presented in the guise of a Cronenbergian body horror-a comparison Skipper willfully leans into, borrowing heavily from the great Videodrome, only swapping out arcade games for television. Rated: 4/5 Nov 2, 2018 Full Review Molly Henery The Blogging Banshee Sequence Break is a surreal scifi-horror mashup that manages to be both unsettling and beautiful all at once. Rated: 8.5/10 Nov 2, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

GenZFox M Give the Oscar to whoever made the cover art. Why was the female lead FIGHTING for her life against the ick, I felt like she was cringing every time she spoke. Girl to girl if we would've been in the same room, I would've walked her to her car. Please try better not harder babe. I was so excited to like this, dear rotten tomatoes set the commenters free from whatever shackles gave this movie a 78 percent thank you. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/17/24 Full Review Liam D A very unique techno horror movie that could have done a lot more Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/28/24 Full Review Audience Member Para ser una pelicula de infimo presupuesto de Graham Skipper, lo cierto es que tecnicamente no esta nada mal e incluso su historia, aunque escrita bastante mal, es interesante y se ven algunas ideas de bastante merito. Lamentablemente la direccion de actores es bastante horrible, y casi parece "moñecos" escupiendo lineas que ningun ser humano diria normalmente. TIene sus meritos no lo niego. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member I really didn't understand this movie, ie how did we get to the conclusion that was presented. How does it make sense? I've tried searching for explanations online but can only find reviews that talk about its ambiguousness. The acting is pretty solid and the visuals/score are great. Its a fun watch for most of the movie before it gets totally weird and confusing. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Williamson is good, but there just isn’t much here that hasn’t been seen before and done better. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 06/02/18 Full Review Audience Member For a low budget D list horror movie Sequence Break does offer some interesting ideas. It takes ideas from Tron, the matrix, and other similar films. It's a movie with some creative ideas. It's just a shame they're not utilized here. As a result sequence break almost feels like a student film. It's extremely low budget, with bland repeated sets, bad acting, bad dialogue , and bad camera work. Another words, it's bad all around. With a bigger budget and some experienced people behind and in front of the camera this might have been something really special. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/27/18 Full Review Read all reviews
