Strange Darling veers in unpredictable directions with little warning, taking viewers on an exploration of lust, desire, and obsession that is equal parts vulnerable and raw as it is cold-blooded and vicious. Go to Full Review
Cameron Ritter Geek Vibes Nation Jul 19
8/10
At face value, Strange Darling is a successful cat-and-mouse thriller from the very beginning, but as the film rolls through its brisk runtime of just under 100 minutes, it proves itself to be a film with something more to say. Go to Full Review

Strange Darling is one of the best films of the year. It’s a melting pot of a movie. It’s an edge of your seat thrill ride with comedic undertones, that succeeds at being an homage and thrives in its gratuitousness. Go to Full Review
