Josh Bell Crooked Marquee There's something mildly distasteful about the way that writer-director Joanna Tsanis turns her protagonist's depression and anxiety into a literal deadly monster. Rated: C Apr 22, 2025 Full Review Keri O'Shea Warped Perspective Misery becomes a literal monster in The Killgrin – a film which nods to a number of established horror ideas and other projects, but benefits from the ambition of director Joanna Tsanis in terms of pulling those ideas together. Rated: C Apr 19, 2025 Full Review Romey Norton Film Focus Online The Killgrin is a must-watch for fans of cerebral, dread-infused storytelling. If you’re looking for a horror movie that goes beyond the surface scares and leaves you unsettled long after the final scene, this is one to add to your watchlist.
