Critics Consensus

A scarily effective horror outing, Veronica proves it doesn't take fancy or exotic ingredients to craft skin-crawling genre thrills.

There's nothing in it that will surprise horror movie aficionados.

Times (UK)

A considerable buzz online suggested that this Spanish horror might arrest the recent run of iffy Netflix movies. Sadly, it doesn't.

Rated: 2/5

Dennis Harvey

Variety

Its ideas aren't ultimately original enough or its scares potent enough to suggest Plaza wouldn't benefit from trying his directorial hand at someone else's screenplay.

Rocco T. Thompson

Rue Morgue Magazine

When the camera and sound design are doing the heavy lifting, Veronica soars, but Plaza’s lack of restraint brings it crashing down, time and again.

Movies and Munchies (YouTube)

With a driving, but unrushed pace, the narrative pulls us into the terrors, complete with shadowy things that go bump in the night and menacing forces that are nothing short of evil.

Rated: 4.5/5

Film Inquiry

Even with its layers of predictability, Verónica will keep you at the edge of your seat until its final moments.

the director is missing so many potential, idk maybe they want to stay true with the 'based of a real story' many of the scene are unnecessary, terrible, and the music is questionable. i can't believe people still recommending this.

A superior piece, which uses familiar stereotypes but still creates a very unsettling mood and is genuinely disturbing. The atmosphere is helped, for me, by the fact it's in Spanish (and not dubbed) and by the very natural cast, who really react like normal children. In fact the lead character, who is 15, is played by a 16 year old, not a 30 year old as would be the case in an American film. There, how difficult was that?
