A wildlife volunteer on an uninhabited island off the British coast descends into a terrifying madness that challenges her grip on reality and pushes her into a living nightmare. Evoking the feeling of discovering a reel of never-before-seen celluloid unspooling in a haunted movie palace, this provocative and masterful vision of horror asserts Mark Jenkin as one of the U.K.'s most exciting and singular filmmakers.

Critics Consensus

If its story's mysteries are ultimately less compelling than they might seem, Enys Men's retro aesthetic and intriguingly abstract visuals make this a chilly treat for horror fans.

C-

The tedious folk horror tale Enys Men is a case of plenty of folk but no horror.

2.5/5

It’s a fever dream in which the past and present are confused, along with plant and animal, the living and the dead, and, ultimately, the meaning of this troubled vision.

I was riveted by every moment of this haunting weird film. "Enys Men" made me legitimately uneasy.

Enys Men is a criminal mix of dull and confusing; if you’ve ever wondered what being stuck on an island with no phone, TV or internet would be like then this might be the movie for you.

4/5

Atmospheric and paced like a scattershot dream, Enys Men is a psychological horror that is unnerving but also compelling

I guess I shouldn’t criticize what I don’t understand, and I’m avoiding biting sarcasm because I see some folks got a lot out of it, so I’ll just say that I enjoyed the grainy visuals and the color variations are outstanding. That’s why I gave it a star.

A haunting study of trauma, ritual, and place-memory, where landscape itself becomes an archive of repetition and loss. Beautiful and enigmatic, the film prioritizes mood and mystery over linear narrative, so it won’t be for everyone.

Brutally boring, very slow moving with next to no dialog or character development.

A fotografia é linda e a locação também. Mas um filme sem história é um monte de retratos enfileirados.
