Alexandra Heller-Nicholas AWFJ.org A dark delicacy that offers film weirdos a new favourite Christmas movie, The Uncle is a twisted yuletide nightmare brought to life. Oct 23, 2023 Full Review Josh Bell Crooked Marquee Kapac and Mardešić keep adding to the tension, maintaining suspense within their deadpan comedy. Rated: B+ Jul 9, 2024 Full Review Louisa Moore Screen Zealots A highly unsettling holiday horror comedy with a squirm level that is off the charts, the film requires a great deal of patience from the audience. The payoff is absolutely there, but you'll need stamina to get to the finish line. Oct 16, 2023 Full Review Dan Scully ScullyVision No matter how dark or punishing the story becomes, it never feels like empty provocation. Oct 4, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
