Ben Turner The Pink Lens Oct 7, 2023
3/5
It’s clever, it’s smug and it never quite lets us have the pay-off it was dangling before us. Go to Full Review
Rich Cline Shadows on the Wall Sep 19, 2023
3.5/5
Writer-director Alexander McGregor Birrell gleefully creates a mysterious vibe, adding suspense and meta flourishes in each scene. Go to Full Review
Trace Thurman Horror Queers Podcast Sep 18, 2023
3/5
A few too many dream sequence fake-outs makes The Latent Image feel like a short stretched to feature length (which it is), but some inventive camerawork and sexually charged performances from Tonks and Clift elevate the lackluster screenplay. Go to Full Review
Joe Lipsett Horror Queers Podcast Sep 18, 2023
3.5/5
The feature adaptation of Birrell's short is stylish (we love a split diopter shot!) and sexy (the murder role play scenario), though the screenplay is occasionally too reliant on dream sequences/hallucinations. Go to Full Review
Bobby LePire Film Threat Sep 12, 2023
7.5/10
Creepiness wins the day, thanks to decent characterizations and a strong cast. Go to Full Review
Josh Bell Crooked Marquee Sep 5, 2023
C
Birrell overloads the movie with cheap, irritating dream/hallucination fake-outs, which serve only as repetitive padding. Go to Full Review
