Paul Lê Bloody Disgusting It is never as subtle as one might like in their arthouse fare, but as something quirky and horror adjacent, the movie strikes all the right poses. Rated: 4/5 Jul 21, 2023 Full Review Anne Brodie What She Said Takeshi Kushida’s Woman Of The Photographs is a strangely seductive number. We see inside their thoughts, ponder humans and bugs, the tyranny of social media and the reality that yet another woman has succumbed to body dysmorphia Rated: 4/4 Mar 10, 2023 Full Review Josh Bell Crooked Marquee Sometimes it's a little too opaque, but it's compelling even when it's baffling. Rated: B Feb 8, 2023 Full Review Kelly Vance East Bay Express It’s not often that a commercially released narrative film takes such an obsessive interest in the error of dwelling on the surface of things. Feb 1, 2023 Full Review Roger Moore Movie Nation Slight as it is, it's all a little creepy and occasionally kind of funny, in a dry, dark and oh-my-God-did-she-open-that-wound AGAIN bloody way. Rated: 2.5/4 Feb 1, 2023 Full Review James Hadfield Japan Times "Woman of the Photographs" has a way of getting under your skin. Rated: 3.5/5 Jan 13, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews
