Critics Consensus

The Possession of Hannah Grace feints at real horror just often enough to offer hints of the movie it should have been -- and further frustrate viewers seeking a good scare.

Chris Stuckmann ChrisStuckmann.com There isn't much more to say. They try early on, a little bit...then they just give up and make a movie where someone walks around in a hallway. Rated: D+ Dec 8, 2018 Full Review Katie Walsh Tribune News Service There are a few jumps and bumps, but there's no real sense of dread, unease or questioning. We simply watch the events unfold with a full understanding of what's going on. Rated: 2/5 Dec 7, 2018 Full Review Matthew Monagle Austin Chronicle The Possession of Hannah Grace isn't the kind of bad movie that warrants midnight screenings and rowdy crowds; it's the kind of bad movie that quietly fades from memory, leaving the world no better and no worse than if it had never existed to begin with. Rated: 1/5 Dec 7, 2018 Full Review Michael Gingold Rue Morgue Magazine [It] has enough going for it to deserve better than being awkwardly sold as part of another subgenre. Oct 17, 2022 Full Review Jeffrey Zhang Strange Harbors The Possession of Hannah Grace is a colorless, charm-less slog that is content in its laziness, a crime much worse than being a bad movie. Rated: D+ Jan 29, 2021 Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com The worst kind of horror film. Rated: 1.5/4.0 Sep 20, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Tyler H I can comfortably say that The Possession of Hannah Grace is one of the worst horror movies I’ve seen in a long time—it's not even in the same league as Thankskilling 3. The plot is painfully simple, and at times, the CGI is hard to watch. With such a straightforward storyline, I found myself bored, as only the last 20 minutes of the film truly deliver any horror, which feels like a stretch. The acting is the best part, especially from the main cast, but the film fails to handle the subject of PTSD realistically, overly dramatizing it in a way that doesn’t resonate. I wouldn't recommend wasting your time on this one. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 11/01/24 Full Review Miniver S I enjoyed it. It was a unique angle on a possession story. I liked the atmospheric slow build. They could have done more with the environment but I wasn't too upset. Honestly the lack of chemistry/energy between the characters was the biggest drawback. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 10/24/24 Full Review Jason W Fairly decent movie, simple plot, well acted, the cinematography was excellent. Some of the CGI was less than desired, but overall, a little better than some of the the usual demonic possession type films out there. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/10/24 Full Review Wolfgang G “The Possession of Hannah Grace” ist ein US-amerikanischer Horrorfilm von Regisseur Diederik Van Rooijen. … Als eine Polizistin aus der Entzugsklinik entlassen wird, arbeitet sie in einem Leichenschauhaus. Dort passiert eine Reihe von schrecklichen Dingen. Diese Dinge kommen von einer schrecklichen Leiche … Ein anständiger Gruselfilm, der jedoch sehr unoriginell ist. Stellen Sie sich vor, der Lazarus-Effekt trifft auf The Autopsy Of Jane Doe. … Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/31/24 Full Review Joshua B Well acted, lighting and cinematography were good, but it’s a slow build to no where that leaves you rolling your eyes at the all to obvious underlying themes. It deals with PTSD, addiction, and personal growth in a way that feels like being beaten with a baseball bat covered in foam…. A slow, torturous slog. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/19/24 Full Review Darren M Such a linear story which left nothing to the imagination. Don't bother. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/15/24 Full Review Read all reviews
