“…there is no denying the movie’s potency as a metaphor for alcoholism.”

“Powered by creative ick and morbid imagination…”

“…feels as if the move itself is in a trance.”

“Clever and nasty…”

“Kinky, cleverly constructed, and featuring against-type performances from three of classic Hollywood’s biggest names…”

“Jenkin’s technique seems best suited toward psychological horror…”

“There’s an intriguing idea and an incredible sequence in Scream VI…”

“The quintessential, mid-century art film…”

“…like The Blair Witch Project if it had been simmered, alongside Poltergeist, in a pot of slow cinema.”

“…as if Dorothy got sucked up by a tornado and dropped down in The Texas Chain Saw Massacre — holding the chainsaw.”
