a hard-hitting, sympathy-confounding thriller that painfully interrogates our own muddled feelings about the sex industry, retribution, and the limits of love, fatherly or otherwise - with an electrifying performance from Marshall. Dec 1, 2010

For all the rough edges, and perhaps because of them, The Horseman is compelling voyeurism, and the two leads are near on perfect. Jul 9, 2010 | Full Review…

Marshall's performance, as the desperate, driven father, is striking; it gives the film an emotional centre without ever diminishing the horror of his character's actions. Jul 7, 2010 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

For such a film, The Horseman is too short of flair - there's not enough of it to distract us from the nastiness. Nov 6, 2009 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

It's mean and upsetting, but though the cruelty may undermine the message of vengeance breeding vengeance, it's never presented as slickly enjoyable or a facile solution. Oct 30, 2009 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

For a revenge thriller, The Horseman strays dangerously close to "torture porn" territory, but it's so well made that you're almost willing to excuse the gratuitous close-ups. Oct 30, 2009 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Unfortunately Kastriossios' direction ultimately buckles under the weight of horror cliché expectation as he ups the action ante to almost hysterical effect. It would have been better if he had held his horses, as it were. Nov 3, 2018 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

It offers better performances than you usually find in a bloodthirsty flick such as this, and heralds the debut of an exciting new filmmaker. The Horseman is for those who like their revenge films unburdened by emotional complexity. Oct 21, 2010 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

Certainly The Horseman is a calling card for Kastrissios' skills as a filmmaker; one just hopes he doesn't make The Horseman 2. Jul 7, 2010 | Rating: 3/5

Steve Kastrissios announces himself as one to watch with this very good thriller, which is smart, relentless and makes the most of it's limitations. Jul 6, 2010 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

The Horseman is utterly repulsive and beautiful at the same time, shot skillfully with varying degrees of shutter-speed adding to the hazy depth of Christian's mental fracture. Jul 6, 2010 | Full Review…
