Reviews
|
Village Voice -
Dark Touch, like much of the best horror, works the fears that connect to real life.
|
|
The Playlist -
It's unfortunate that commercial considerations seem to play into the third act, adding a more concrete representation of a very abstract idea.
|
|
The New York Times -
That space between reality and mirage is where Ms. de Van’s strength, and this movie’s true horror, lies.
|
|
The Dissolve -
Dark Touch is meant to touch a nerve, not merely spook. It’s about deeper fears, and realer monsters.

|
Slant Magazine -
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.
