Reviews


80
Village Voice - Alan Scherstuhl
Dark Touch, like much of the best horror, works the fears that connect to real life.
75
The Playlist - Gabe Toro
It's unfortunate that commercial considerations seem to play into the third act, adding a more concrete representation of a very abstract idea.
70
The New York Times - Jeannette Catsoulis
That space between reality and mirage is where Ms. de Van’s strength, and this movie’s true horror, lies.
60
The Dissolve - Noel Murray
Dark Touch is meant to touch a nerve, not merely spook. It’s about deeper fears, and realer monsters.
50
Slant Magazine - Ed Gonzalez
The film is beholden to a strange internal logic that gives primacy not to its protagonist's suffering, but to its maker's thirst for fun.
