What to Know

Critics Consensus

The Horror of Dolores Roach bites off more than it could chew with the delicate balance between horror and humor, but Justina Machado's commitment to the zany premise makes for a savory snack of a series.

It seems a sure thing that Machado will be a name to watch in future awards seasons. Go to Full Review

A tale of murder, bloody murder, The Horror of Dolores Roach is an intriguing, gory and entertaining work of horror, comedy and social critique that owes a deep debt to the legend of Sweeney Todd. Go to Full Review

I know this is likely reminiscent of the podcast this story originated from, but I’m not sure the voiceover was entirely necessary as often as it appeared. Go to Full Review

As a horror-loving Latina, it was a breath of fresh air to see Machado in this role and not dying in the first five seconds. Go to Full Review
Melissa Camacho Common Sense Media 02/22/2024
But The Horror of Dolores Roach isn't for the faint of heart, and some folks may have a hard time digesting what it has to offer. Go to Full Review

Colin T 01/09/2025 I had really high hopes for this series! However, by the fourth episode…I don’t know if the writers were changed or what happened but the fifth episode was the start of its plummeting demise. Not only does the series end with BLATANT plot holes: what happened to Nelly, who was the person that knew where Dominic was(which started this entire show), her time on the lam should’ve also been explored more but it seemed rushed and careless. Overall, the first four episodes are so binge worthy and satisfying, but towards the conclusion something happened and it completely took a left turn.

It starts a little rough, a little unpolished, and then builds and grows into something intriguing, more slick and thrilling. It is left open to a second season… we shall see! See more Grim P @grimportent 11/01/2023 Justina Machado's performance was amazing. I'm in awe of the storytelling... What a story. Not at all predictable in any way. Each shot was meaningful, each piece necessary. See more Farhad S @G.Samsa 09/19/2023 Loved it. A great combination of horror and comedy. And the actors! They're all so good. Can't wait for season 2.
