Critics Consensus

Werewolf horror with some extra socially conscious bite, Blackout reaffirms Larry Fessenden as a smart genre filmmaker who prioritizes character-building over kills.

The idiosyncratic earnestness of an experienced horrormeister playing with the classics still makes for a substantial midnight snack.

2.5/4

“Blackout” is nothing new, or even essential, but it mostly works anyway thanks to Fessenden and his cast’s impressive collaboration.

3/5

Offers an engaging kink in the well-worn sub-genre of werewolf films, with some deft use of animation and painting.

2.5/5

Though Larry Fessenden’s werewolf feature starts strong, its attempts at exploring various themes result in an aimless narrative that struggles to tie them together.
