It just might be the worst film ever.

User rating: June 7, 2022

Terrible terrible terrible! This might be the worst movie I've ever seen. It isn't scary AT ALL. The central metaphor is clumsy and soooo obvious! It's like this was written by a tenth-grader. The kid is utterly disgusting. I've never seen a more despicable character in a movie. The movie might have been saved if the intolerable little shit had been painfully butchered at the end, but director Kent doesn't have that kind of courage...or the slightest f**king clue! Beware of misleading reviews: this was wildly overpraised by critics who don't have the first f**king clue about horror cinema. A message to the director Jennifer Kent if she's reading this: f**k YOU! Your movie is a stain on our collective species. You should be deeply ashamed!

That annoying little bastard should have been tortured to death. That would have made the film worthwhile.

Quite possibly the worst horror film ever made. This is the AIDS of horror cinema.

The most overpraised horror film of the century. Not scary at all. Noah Wiseman's character was totally repugnant. The filmmaker made that kid WAY too obnoxious and by doing so, completely lost control of her film. This is a monster movie, alright. The kid was the monster. One of the most frustrating films ever made.

Well done! Very unique and genuinely creepy. Don't usually like movies this artsy but this was awesome.
