“Brings a fresh & inventive perspective to the vampire genre”
“Evokes an unrelentingly unsettling atmosphere throughout”
“A tense & immersive (if a little underwhelming) horror film”
“Perhaps the most disappointing film of 2024”
“Fede Alvarez’s love-letter to the original Alien movies”
Focusing on comedy & character over plot, Tim Burton delivers all the dark fun you could want from a ‘Beetlejuice’ sequel”
“A touching character study that just happens to take place against the backdrop of an alien infestation”
“Playfully toys with the genre tropes, while delivering all of the blood & laughs you could ask for”
“While the film is flawed in terms of an overstuffed cast, it’s still a hell of a lot of fun, with plenty for fans of the previous films to enjoy”
“Playing with countless horror tropes, this movie works brilliantly as a twisted dark comedy”
“A perfectly effective supernatural horror, that tries to inject some new ideas into the mix”
“A sequel/reboot that brings something new to the horror series, offering up over-the-top violence with a jet-black streak of dark humour”
“A surprisingly inventive & original sci-fi thriller that isn’t afraid to take some risks, and is all the better for it”
“A satirical, sci-fi-conspiracy comedy/thriller – like a cross between The X-Files & Black Mirror, shot through with a hefty dose of Shaft”
“A consistently funny (and gory) action comedy carried by Nicholas Hoult’s & Nicolas Cage’s central dysfunctional relationship”
“An inventive & original horror thriller that unfolds in very unpredictable ways”
“Showing that an infusion of fresh blood was just what the franchise needed, this is one of the most inventive films in the series”
“As high-concept B-movies go, this is far better than the likes of Snakes on a Plane”
“Arguably M. Night Shyamalan’s most accessible film in years, as an exercise in tension, it’s a gripping & original thriller”
“Neither feels like a ‘Halloween’ movie nor stands on its own as an enjoyable standalone horror – but the last 20 minutes do deliver on the promised final showdown”
“The plot is a bit of a let down in the final act, but the film is worth seeing for Florence Pugh’s performance alone”
