It’s powerful, heartbreaking, and hopeful at the end when Wilson survives and fights back against the misfortune monster in their childhood.

But Why Tho? A Geek Community

When I Consume You clocks in at a brisk 92 minutes, but you feel the latter end lag a bit more than you should. Perry Blackshear does manage to stick the landing, though, and gives us a bittersweet yet satisfying ending. There’s a lot to enjoy here...

Rated: 8.5/10

Culture Mix

When I Consume You is an effectively atmospheric horror movie with a story that unfolds in layers. This brooding film, which is about a brother and a sister plagued by a mysterious stalker, is not what it might first appear to be to some viewers.

That Shelf

Ultimately, When I Consume You offers little that’s new and exciting for genre fans, firmly planting itself as an inoffensive-yet-average tale that will struggle to hold viewers’ attention spans.

Slowburn heartfelt horror that picks up a bit in the second half.

I'm not the best reviewer as I turned it off after around an hour. Just couldn't get into it.

Very disappointing after seeing the 100% score. Boring, low budget, I should have trusted my gut when I wanted to turn it off during the first 10 minutes. It's not a bad story and there are some good ideas, but it is a pass for me.

Rated 2 out of 5 stars
