Barbarian (2022) | Ratings & Reviews

Seeming at first a disappointingly conventional thriller, Barbarian totally satisfies as a horror when it unveils a distinctly structured, surprising story and meaty mystery - with layers of comedy and sickening psychology.

"A wild and terrifying ride."

—

Hollywood Reporter

"Barbarian mines multiple real-life scenarios and fears to unleash some truly unhinged terrors. It’s no Get Out, but it’s a hell of a lot of fun -- with a little something to say as well."

—

IndieWire

"Cregger delivers an absolutely stunning addition to the horror canon."

—

A.V. Club

"Zach Cregger eschews conventions to keep audiences on edge, making for one of the most delightfully unhinged viewing experiences in recent memory."

—

Bloody Disgusting

"To Cregger’s credit, the sense of dread he creates is the stuff that the very best horror movies are made of."

—

Variety

"Cregger sets up dozens of clichés and pulls them in genuinely surprising directions, brandishing his touchstones: American horror films of the 80s and 90s in the vein of Wes Craven."
