Critic Reviews for The Seventh Day

All Critics (10) | Top Critics (3) | Fresh (1) | Rotten (9)

It's a chance to watch Pearce and his remarkable cheekbones and gleeful weirdness at work with a scripture-chewing performance that puts a lot of meat on what could have been an off-the-peg turn from a lesser actor.

Leslie Felperin
Guardian
Pearce gets the good lines, which he delivers with a sinister nonchalance that says, "The devil made me do it. Or maybe it was my accountant."

Owen Gleiberman
Variety
A movie like this needs to be more in-your-face. Instead, its intensity level rarely rises above a mutter.

Noel Murray
Los Angeles Times
The Seventh Day seeks to reinvent the exorcism movie via the buddy cop genre but succeeds only in combing the most hackneyed bits of each.

Richard Crouse
An exorcism patient who's strapped to a bed probably has more fun than anyone who watches this tedious train wreck of a horror film until the movie's very ludicrous end.

Carla Hay
Culture Mix
The worst kind of dully competent horror filmmaking - the kind that earnestly believes that it is doing something eerie, thrilling, and thoughtful.

Andrew Wyatt
The Lens
Pearce offers a compelling portrayal in an underwritten role, and the film manages some intense exorcism sequences. Yet for the most part, it feels content to rehash old spiritual and supernatural tropes.

Todd Jorgenson
Cinemalogue
This horror movie tries to put a new spin on the old exorcism genre, and it certainly has some thoughtful moments, but the scares are mostly nonexistent, and the storytelling is all too predictable.

Jeffrey M. Anderson
Common Sense Media
The Seventh Day ... mostly digs into its absurd setup and a series of predictable, futile scare attempts.

The failures pile up quickly after a promising first act and "The Seventh Day" doesn't hold the interest past day two.
