Coming Home in the Dark

"Unbearably tense..."

"A genre exercise with some impressive bursts of filmmaking and performance that bode well for whatever Ashcroft does next."

"At a certain point, the built-up momentum declines at a steady rate, never entirely living up to that exhilarating, brutal first act."

"The movie doesn’t break any new ground - and doesn’t really try to - but will grab hold of you in moments that range from tense and thrilling to downright shocking."

"(Coming Home in the Dark) can’t help but sputter in the third act, the engine blown from the unsurpassable terror it invokes early on."

"A tensely thrilling ride pairing cruel behaviors with an inviting landscape... not for the faint of heart."

"Its torture-porn trappings give way to a moral weight as unanticipated by the characters as it is by the audience."

"A rivetingly nasty ride and an assured debut from a promising new director."

"A terrific piece of work, as pitiless as it is nuanced."
