Critics Consensus

While it pales in compassion to the classics it references, "Flesh & Blood" is an entertaining B-movie with two compelling performances at its core.

Into the Dark's second installment is scary, sure - and, generally speaking, impressive as a horror story that's supposed to be centered around Thanksgiving, of all things - but more importantly, it's fun. Go to Full Review

As Flesh & Blood becomes more predictable, the filmmaking doesn't tighten like it needs to in order to go from mystery to thriller. Go to Full Review
Kayla Cobb Decider 07/23/2019
The central mystery of the episode is good enough to be entertaining, and Silvers and Dermot Mulroney give solid performances. That being said, the episode leans too much into B-horror schlock. Go to Full Review

This episode is easily the best of the two(so far)! A twisted piece of dramatic horror with two excellent lead performances. Loved the moments of homage to The Shining. Go to Full Review
Daniel Kurland Bloody Disgusting 07/23/2019
There's plenty of potential in "Flesh & Blood," especially since the installment references a bunch of classic horror, but it still feels like a pulpy pale comparison of those films rather than something that evolves the form. Go to Full Review

Silvers does a good job finding the right balance between an average teenager and unprocessed trauma survivor. Go to Full Review
