      Rick Bentley Tribune News Service This is a movie that creates fear out of creepy moments and by playing on the natural desire of wanting to feel safe with family. There's no need for blood or excessive acts of violence when the scares are this unsettling. Rated: 3/4 Nov 19, 2018 Full Review Emily Yoshida New York Magazine/Vulture Skiles's film doesn't care so much if you think you know how it ends, even if you're right. It's all about twisting the knife in the process of confirming those fears. Nov 16, 2018 Full Review Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com As good as Plummer and McDermott are here, [writer Christopher D. Ford] ultimately writes himself into a corner that requires actions in the final act that don't ring true. Rated: 2/4 Nov 16, 2018 Full Review Jason Adams My New Plaid Pants The horror lies not so much in the destination, but the journey, and I was shocked by how wrong The Clovehitch Killer was willing to make that journey seem and feel Jul 6, 2021 Full Review Barbara Shulgasser Common Sense Media This movie grabs you right away, giving us a 16-year-old narrator who has skills of observation, meticulousness, self reliance, and preparedness, as instilled in him by his Scout leader dad. Rated: 3/5 Jun 2, 2021 Full Review Johnny Loftus Decider Amplifies its serial killer material craftily, notch by notch. May 6, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

      Rich S The film's weakness reflects using the clove-hitch knot itselt: It's a knot that is easy to make, but just as simple to undo. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/31/24 Full Review Audience Member THE CLOVEHITCH KILLER getting such high ratings from the pro critics and the audience as well is waaaaaaaay beyond me. The acting was fine but, overall, the blatant inconsistencies in the screenplay virtually guaranteed that, if it was a ship being launched, there's a 150% chance of sinking. Yet, despite that, it was an interesting idea poorly offered. C'est la vie, que sera sera... Rated 2 out of 5 stars 05/25/24 Full Review John M Something feels off at first, it starts like a poorly acted 70s film, you'll wanna turn it off. Just lay the remote down and let the movie do what it does. It's worth your time. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/23/24 Full Review Kira S The acting is decent, but that ending had more holes in it than one can count. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 05/21/24 Full Review Emilliano Jr S One of the best thrillers in years. Highly recommended for crime, thriller enthusiast. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/16/24 Full Review Yuri M O filme mantém uma cadência de eventos que mantém o telespectador afixado na narrativa, construída sob uma dualidade de personagens. O final surpreende quem está assistindo. De fato, vale a pena! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/04/24 Full Review Read all reviews
