While The Long Night may not be revolutionary, it's definitely got its own dark magic.

Ghouls Magazine

The Long Night is a gloomy and foreboding atmospheric set piece with traditional yet not entirely tired folk horror visuals.

Rated: 3.5/5

Keith & the Movies

Neither the spooky backwoods tropes or the deranged death cult can muster the kind of tension this movie desperately needs.

Rated: 2/5

Cinema Crazed

The Long Night is a beautiful to look at, dark film with some truly tense moments, some sequences that are actually surprising, and a few images that will stick with the viewer for a while afterwards.

Rated: 3.5/5

This has good reviews on Amazon so I was tricked into trying it out. I'm the first 6 minutes I could already tell the stars were hired because they knew someone who financed the film and then it just got worse from there. To be honest, I didn't watch it all the way through…I literally couldn't make it. Back in the 80s, low budget horror was at least fun, creative and cheesy. These days, people produce absolute garbage like this which is unwatchable and then wonder why they get such low ratings. Well, I guess they've got the Amazon system gamed so they're much better at gaming reviews than they are at making movies. Abysmal…zero stars to everything from the cast to the acting to the writing…the dialogue, the music, the cinematography. All complete and utter rubbish and I write that unapologetically to help keep someone else from wasting the 10-15 minutes I did on it.

No es realmente aterradora, pero logra crear una atmósfera de suspenso, la trama es algo debil, pero coherente dentro de si misma, no esta mal si busca una película para pasar el Rato, pero definitivamente no es lo que buscas si quieres ver una Película que no te deje dormir

Scout Taylor-Compton is as appealing as ever, but the film is just all right.

Scout Taylor-Compton is always solid, but every other aspect of the film is like a bad fan-film. The film is nearly incoherent.

It's not as engaging as it needs to be for a movie about death cults, even all the excessive gruesome (albeit well done) effects by the end did little to up the ante. Ultimately I was just bored throughout this thing, which is a death blow for something like this.

I always forget I watched this and what it was about. It wasn't very good. The acting wasn't very good.
