      R L not really a horror movie imo but it was creepy and hilariously entertaining! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/27/24 Full Review Montgomery M really good and entertaining movie that i associate with my girlfriend Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Good thriller here well worth watching James Welch, Henderson, Arkansas July 10-2023 Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/10/23 Full Review mathilde B Really liked this movie, mostly because of Mckenna Grace; she's a star and her performance is mind blowing Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/11/23 Full Review Audience Member Currently, I am not watching that many horror-movies, and it is safe to say that this was not a scary movie what so ever. I have not watched the original movie from 1956, therefore without backgroundinformation, i'd say this was an ok movie. The story was great, and intriguing, as well as the ending which was genius! I did not see that coming (I did predict the glass-switch at the end), but the way they set-up a sequel was perfect. Grace's performance was still on spot, and I would say that one of the biggest negatives to this movie, is the genre that was listed. Cause it was definitely not creepy, scary, nor having any jump-scares. In other words; if you are after a non scary, but interesting story, with SOME "13+" disturbing scenes, just give it a watch, and ignore "The BAD reviews"! They are probably just playing on the title of the movie "The BAD seed" ;) Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review steve d It worked because Grace is fantastic.

      Katie Rife AV Club ...this cardboard-cutout quality extends to the dialogue scenes between the adult actors, where Lowe's inexperience as a director really shows. Rated: C- Sep 10, 2018 Full Review Dan Fienberg Hollywood Reporter Call it The Bad Seed and you tap into a surface-glaze legitimacy that's probably unwarranted, because the movie, notable as co-star Rob Lowe's directing debut, achieves only a baseline amount of trashy fun, nothing more or less. Sep 7, 2018 Full Review Felix Vasquez Jr. Cinema Crazed If you're still conscious by the time the credits roll, you're probably much better off watching the original 1956 thriller...
