Critics Consensus

Wounds isn't without its creepy-crawly charms, but they -- and the efforts of a talented cast -- get squished by a story that never quite gets completely under the skin.

Hulu owes me an hour and a half of my life for that crapfest they call a movie. It kept adding more questions as the movie went on, without answering anything, and nothing made sense. I can't remember the last time I was angry at the end of a movie. Avoid this at all costs!

Poo-ey what a stinker. Hammers charisma is the only thing keeping you going through this inane non-starter of a film. Feels like several key scenes were forgotten in the edit, as the whole thing fails to come together in any coherent way.

The movie sputters along like so many of the cockroaches that inhabit the film. If I wanted to watch a story about a deadbeat who keeps making all the wrong choices, I'd go to my local dive bar. At least the drunks there aren't A-holes. If this plot ever actually went anywhere, it might've been mildly entertaining. It's like watching mold grow on stale bread.

This was one of those movies that was a complete waste of an hour and a half of my life I'll never get back LOL. One of the worst movies I've seen in a while. TOTALLY pointless. As many other reviewers have pointed out, nothing in the plotline or movie make any sense at all -- and not in an intentional, "this is complex and hidden clues and you have to figure it out" way, but in a completely disjointed, throw a bunch of unrelated creepy stuff in with absolutely no story that ties it together way. Soooo many questions that apparently no one involved, from the writers to producers to directors to cast, thought to ask or answer. What did the college kids at the beginning have to do with anything? What's the deal with the tunnel and the eye? What is the entire reason/story behind the happenings? To top it off, the main character is intensely dislikable with apparently no redeeming qualities at all. I spent the entire movie just WISHING whatever the evil presence was would just end his ass already. And Dakota Johnson....sigh. How did she get to be cast in ANYTHING as an actress? Her performance/role in this film is just as it has been in every other film I've seen with her in it - a bland cutout cardboard person with one expression who adds nothing to the movie at all. Do yourself a big favor and avoid this movie like the plague. Wish I'd read a few reviews before mindlessly selecting it ha ha.

The actual scares and suspense within this horror-thriller are far from frightening.

A film with two halves that often seem at odds with each other.

The movie more than fulfills its promise to unsettle and to incite shivers - and it doesn't quit.

It's not precisely terrible -- these are all talented people involved. It's just one or two degrees off from working, but those one or two degrees, with a project this high-wire, defeats it.

Rated: C

Movie Squad (RTRFM 92.1)

It builds to this really absurd ending, which is really fascinating, but I don't think it pays off the way it thinks it does.

Rated: 2/5

Horror films usually put all the cards out to play in the set-up... but mostly it feels like the film never moves out of its set-up stage.
