Kimber Myers Los Angeles Times Aug 17, 2017
It breaks the cardinal rule of the larger horror genre, running 95 minutes without a single scare or moment of dread. Go to Full Review John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter Aug 17, 2017
Unimaginative and sensorily monotonous. Go to Full Review Emilie Black Cinema Crazed Apr 17, 2020
2.5
The film is not boring per sey, but it does not really bring that much new to the found footage plate and it over-uses chaotic images ... Go to Full Review Jonathan Barkan Dread Central Jan 30, 2018
3/5
Let me put your fears to rest before we go any further... YES, there are monsters in this movie, and HELL YES do you get to see them. Go to Full Review Rob Staeger L.A. Weekly Aug 18, 2017
It's sometimes tough to follow the action, but for a short while it's breathless fun, as escaping one monster leads the group to the next. Go to Full Review Maitland McDonagh Film Journal International Aug 17, 2017
An above-average variation on a familiar theme and style, and in a market glutted with scary movies that's no small achievement. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Yndery S @RT05891539 Aug 3, 2026 To be honest it's a crap movie, it's not scary, and it's literally just predictable jumpscare.They recommended it to me on tik tok and very bad choice of movie See more Camila P @camila_p Jul 2, 2026 It was a very engaging horror film, I was on my toes a good majority of it. This was a type of film that truly has the audience rethink how the film is going to end. I recommend this film to anyone who likes creepy houses and creepy documentaries. See more Lord H. @RT31585074 May 2, 2026 Plain bad don't waste your time with this movie See more Kyle M @RT77296778 Dec 10, 2025 Conceptually bold across its mythical measures albeit nonsensically plotted with few cleverly suspended jolts, the compilation of the many consisted tropes has become its own weakness succumbing to the illogic presentation’s flat equivalence to venturing through a rote haunted house attraction without any dimensional scares over contrived performances. (C) See more Riley P. @horrorluver Nov 1, 2025 i liked it! it wasn’t the best but i thought it was good for a monster movie See more Finn H @RT88995300 Aug 19, 2025 The acting is really well done, the sfx was really good however the monster faces are a little bad but the movie makes up for it with the plotline, i dont see many movies actually doing research on skinwalkers and mentioning where they come from so i was suprised to hear it but im glad its there, overall a really good movie and would watch again :33 See more Read all reviews
