Michael Cudlitz's first leading role is the sole selling point of this repellent character study.

Griffith's vulnerable performance is a standout. But the film's final third seems needlessly graphic.

Rated: 2/4

New York Times

"Dark Tourist" takes an effectively unpleasant trip down the lost highway of a morbid mind before its bad choices start catching up with it.

There's a decent movie somewhere in the Dark Tourist, but unfortunately it never really comes to the surface and you're left with a film that is just disappointing.

Rated: 2/4

What Culture

Disappointingly resorts to a reductive dissection of its protagonist in the third reel, but The Grief Tourist benefits from Michael Cudlitz's suitably creepy performance, and is an atmospheric, suspenseful ride.

Rated: 3/5

SSG Syndicate

Degenerate, depraved psycho-sexual drama revolving around a pathetic thrill-seeker who travels with intent to visit places of tragedy or disaster.

To be honest, I expected a lot from the beginning of the film but in the end it ended up being a flat plot with flat characters and a shoddy ending that simply left me with a bad taste in my mouth The film tried to contribute many things and it contributed them all wrong.

Horribly slow movie that had about 20 mins of good plot and definitely not a "thriller". Similar theme as the movie Kalifornia but a major fail.

A powerful central performance is detracted from somewhat by the presence of the dead serial killer, which paradoxically serves to lighten the mood. Nice tone to the film though, and a claustrophobic sense of creeping insanity.

The finale of the movie is stale and cliche but everything leading up to that point is a profound dissection of the main character.

Michael Cudlitz as you never have seen him before on film ot tv. This is not your "Abraham Ford" Cudlitz, or even your "John Cooper" Cudlitz. This movie is a slow ride to disturbing places. It is not a great film, but there is definitely something intriguing about the movie. there are moments where you can somewhat predict where the story is headed, but then you actually have no idea how far that story is prepared to go. Slow, yet captivating. Interesting, yet disturbing.
