Critics Consensus

Within the outline of its fairly standard story, The Offering puts a unique -- and often genuinely scary -- spin on demonic possession horror tropes.

Randy Myers

San Jose Mercury News

Park cranks up both the mood and the fear factor for a devilishly good supernatural thriller.

Rated: 3/4

For what it is, it's effective.

This throwback to a horror style that seemed more prevalent in the late ‘00s and early ‘10s makes me excited about what this filmmaker has to, sorry, offer in the future.

Rated: 2.5/4

Tales from the Paulside

The Offering finally takes on too much by having two main stories compete for the spotlight.

The Offering is one you can refuse. Genre enthusiasts might find it a unique enough variation for a satisfying watch, but those who need more than the formula are going to find this familiar and forgettable.

This movie started out so promising, and then just became dry and started falling short on every part. Also… elevator scene wise? Can we stop making women look like idiots just to draw out a scene? It’s a dated practice, and annoying. She knew immediately to close the gate on the way down, she isn’t going to forget for that long on the way back up, even with panic setting in… maybe for a brief second, but not for that long. Anyways… personally didn’t like this. Found it to be a waste of time, and had a hard time sitting through the entirety of the film. Ending was on par with the rest of the film. Realized I was getting up and pausing every 20 minutes and had to force myself to finish it (goal is to finish all Hulu horror movies by the end of 2024). Hard pass.

This movie reminded me a lot of The Autopsy of Jane Doe. Not bad, but i really felt like I was watching some movie twice.

Ok acting with just a couple of jump scares and draped in some Jewish tradition or folklore that was somewhat beyond me. As someone who is usually all for a horror involving the supernatural I felt that the movie got in its own way due to the plot. Ghosts/demons, a morgue, it's usually enough but not this time.

It was a waste of my time. I didn't like the endings and the carather weren't really developed. Skip it.
