4/5

Stewart and O’Brian are terrific together in a credible but decidedly unsentimental romance -- this is a world of sweat, dirt, violence and terrible decisions.

Rose Glass's gory sensibility is put to good use in this steroid-popping, hyper-violent love story.

For all its artful flourishes, Lost Highway homages and unlikely final act transformations, it’s ultimately a movie filled with the familiar. Gender reversals or not, there’s no sight in cinema more tired than seeing people being shot.

8/10

‘Love Lies Bleeding’ is a grimy romance about two star-crossed, desperate lovers mixed up in crime, murder, family dysfunction, and, uh, bodybuilding that works on nearly every level.
