2.5/4
A movie that's at its best when it seems to be playfully mocking its very existence and is less effective when it tries to be a commentary on the poisonous nature of internet virality. Go to Full Review Andrew Wyatt The Lens 05/01/2020
C-
Pooka Lives! works best as silly, low-budget comic riff on familiar horror tropes, but it regrettably often undercuts its mostly jokey tone. Go to Full Review Daniel Kurland Screen Rant 04/15/2020
Pooka Lives! is a very exciting installment in the anthology horror series, not just because it brings back a fan favorite character, but because of the creature from monster lore that it utilizes. Go to Full Review Matt Donato Slashfilm 04/15/2020
7/10
Into The Dark's latest conceptualizes in a way that benefits goofball horror storytelling, and engrains its fan-favorite figure in the franchise's recognizable lexicon. The second stuffing-and-coming turns out to be exactly what this anthology needs. Go to Full Review John Squires Bloody Disgusting 04/10/2020
3.5/5
This interesting and clever approach to bringing Pooka back to life is a little bit creepy and a whole lot of fun. Go to Full Review Joe Lipsett Gayly Dreadful 04/03/2020
At least "Pooka Lives!" gives us plenty to chew on, even if it is wildly uneven. Plus: animated end credit sequences for the win! Go to Full Review Read all reviews
