      James Turner Flickering Myth The Harrowing is a solid horror film with more than enough intrigue to keep you hooked throughout its 110 minute runtime. Rated: 3/5 May 12, 2020 Full Review Adam Mock Film Inquiry The Harrowing promises such supernatural offerings only to deliver a bland, soft-focus thriller with none of the scares. Mar 20, 2019 Full Review Norman Gidney Film Threat There are literally no surprises here as the film leans heavy on convention while expecting that it may, somehow, surprise you. Rated: 5/10 Jan 15, 2019 Full Review Courtney Button Starburst Tompkins and entertaining effects keep things moving, but it's let down by a plot that never effectively unravels, instead just relying on the unreliable protagonist trope. Rated: 3/10 Jan 2, 2019 Full Review Abbie Bernstein Assignment X This is a very tricky kind of storytelling. While Keeyes gives us some interesting imagery, along with some very graphic bloodshed, he loses control of momentum on the Moebius strip. Rated: B- Jan 2, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

      Audience Member Keeyes story blends fantasy horror with seedy crime syndicate concepts that are poignant to real world issues. It is quite a heady storyline with a deeper meaning snaked through the film, revealing a larger story at play. It isnt a new idea to use a plotline as a metaphor of sorts to tell a bigger story , but Keeyes gets gritty and almost masterful in his attempt in a most creative way. The characters are fully realized. Easily recognizable, even as unsavory as most are, and you can connect with their plight. "The Harrowing" is a transitional nightmare that plays with perceptions. Although at times the film hits lags with wordy clichà (C) dialog, there is not a moment you forget what you are watching. Mostly because the horror of the previous scenes or the understanding that things are going to get even more horrible afterwards. There are a few moments that hurt "The Harrowing". During the midway point as things get clearer, during the story transition, the story gets a bit muddled in the beginning. Luckily just as it feels Keeves could be heading off the rails , the muddle fades and the story rebounds and kicks in to high gear. You still are made to watch the story unfold with a big question mark overhead, but that is intentioal. Overall "The Harrowing" is a killer movie. The special effects are stellar, both CGI and practical. I felt like I was watching a true modern giallo, with all the blood and gore a horror fan could want for. The creature design, what time it is on screen is awesome, I wanted more of it. Definitely check this one out. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Great film for the genre. Lots of fun and kept me guessing until the end Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/25/18 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
