Reviews


83
The Film Stage - John Fink
Virtually free from quirk and black humor, the film is an effective, nasty thriller and a rare horror film that provides an emotional investment because the portrait of teenhood is utterly authentic.
80
The Hollywood Reporter - Neil Young
Strikingly shot, edited and scored, with convincing and vivid performances from a youthful cast, the picture loses its footing in the final stretch but should still take high rank among U.S. debuts of its ilk this year
80
We Got This Covered - Matt Donato
Debuts shouldn’t be this tense or composed, yet Super Dark Times is an instantaneous must-see.
70
Variety - Jay Weissberg
It’s hard not to appreciate the astute ways the script captures the moment when carefree childhood turns into the loss of innocence.
70
Screen International - Fionnuala Halligan
Phillips’ collaborators work in harmony with the natural, nuanced acting; credits across the board are stylish and smooth, with lensing a standout. Also of particular note is the design; a rich, forest-driven colour saturation which suits the hooded houses and shadowy driveways of these traumatised teens.
