The final 15 minutes are explosive.

The movie's too slow at the start and somewhat befuddling at the end, but for the most part it's a haunting, poignant portrait of one woman's Kafkaesque nightmare.

A rare horror movie whose creators seriously represent both sides of a dilemma, and is therefore more mature than it seems at first glance.

Rated: 3.5/4

Cinema Crazed

Welcome to Mercy is a supernatural film that creates a world and characters that are realistic and human, setting itself in a low-key way that brings the viewer in before releasing its information and turning things on the viewer.

Rated: 4.5/5

If you can handle a super-slow burn, though, Welcome to Mercy is right up your alley.

Rated: 6.5/10

Welcome to Mercy is a lazy, muddled horror feature, but at least it's wily about concealing that fact.

This movie was absolutely amazing. Now when I clicked on this to watch I was not expecting this kind of film. But this shows you what the person in the body is going through now it's supposed to represent evil but to me I saw this as what people go through with mental illness. I'll let you watch yourself but THIS MOVIE IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!

This is a really poorly made and dumb movie. It is very hard to follow in a way that is unnecessary. It's a movie I really wanted to and tried to like. The dialogue is not tightly put together so the movie starts out very slowly and biting my. When any action starts it is never clear how it is resolved. The entire ends up feeling like a shameful waste of time by the end. The movie "Stigmata" was a much better film and I didn't like that one either.

Chop the last four seconds off the film, and I would bump it up a half star.

Pretty good actually. Left the theater feeling that all had been explained. No real major unanswered questions.
