Review For The Apparition |
This horror movie from Warner Bros. is nothing special, but it's nice to see a modest genre entertainment buoyed by a major studio's resources. Ben Sachs-Chicago Reader
The entity is a ghostly presence amid an even ghostlier absence. This is truly distressed real estate. Mark Feeney-Boston Globe
Something lacking either body heat or visceral suspense. Mark Olsen-Los Angeles Times
For casual viewers desiring a few scares, some suspense and a sustained sense of dread and malevolence, you could do worse. Frank Lovece-Newsday
Lights flicker; soap and cactuses blacken; claw marks appear; icky molds gather like hornet nests. Andy Webster-New York Times
Might give you a restless night, but only because you fell asleep in the theater. Keith Staskiewicz-Entertainment Weekly
When I finally get around to writing a textbook, this is going to be one of my primary examples of how not to make a horror movie. William Bibbiani-CraveOnline
Instead of a genuine story line, 'The Apparition' asks us to sit and wait for something to happen. And wait. And wait. (Blu-ray edition) John J. Puccio-Movie Metropolis
I like a good ghost story, but 'The Apparition' is nothing like a good ghost story. It's more like a Syfy Channel show where they try to scare people in a darkened room. John J. Puccio-Movie Metropolis
A thinly sketched paranormal thriller stripped almost bare of anything that might provide some color, complication or personality. Brent Simon-Screen International
The Apparition is a rare example of filmmaking failure that is so complete, it will exacerbate its audience in nearly every way possible. Kofi Outlaw-ScreenRant
Every fo paux The Apparition commits stems from a general atmosphere lacking any vibrant heartbeat, creating characters and conflicts which are tragically birthed on life support. Matt Joseph-We Got This Covered
Todd Lincoln, in his directorial debut, shows the restraint of a young Val Lewton. Things go bad oh-so-slowly ... Glenn Lovell-CinemaDope
When you look into this abyss, it yawns back at you. Marc Savlov-Austin Chronicle
Plants wither and furniture is rearranged, as if the demon were an inconsiderate housesitter. John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)
The whole ordeal only lasts 82 minutes, but that's still too long for a film with no ambition aside from lightening your wallet. Chris Stuckmann-Moviedex
Doesn't offer anything new, let alone entertaining. Peg Aloi-Boston Phoenix
A run of the mill horror flick that gets worse and worse as it progresses Jackie K. Cooper-jackiekcooper.com
It's simply one of the worst horror movies I've ever seen in my life; such a waste of time being in that theater. It's so wholly awful it's almost an acheivement how bad it is. Mark Ellis-Schmoes Know
