      Mark Kermode Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube) It's a horror film that isn't scary, and that's always going to be an issue. Apr 30, 2024 Full Review Noah Berlatsky Chicago Reader [Baghead] gets trapped in its own overcomplicated narrative contrivances, which suggest not the inevitable grip of death, but the endless try-hard of not-quite-baked genre product. Mar 29, 2024 Full Review Sandra Hall Sydney Morning Herald Corredor doesn’t take the time to make any of this matter to us. Apart from being encouraged to marvel at Iris’s uncanny self-composure in the face of the forces she’s managed to stir up, we don’t really get to understand what she’s about. Rated: 2.5/5 Feb 29, 2024 Full Review Ian Bunting Daily Record (UK) If the superior Talk to Me didn’t exist I’d probably rate Baghead a little higher, however it still earns its place in the horror market with a haunting titular creation steeped in the stuff of nightmares. May 8, 2024 Full Review Aaron Neuwirth We Live Entertainment There’s competence on display, but Baghead ends up feeling very paint-by-numbers. Rated: 4/10 Apr 18, 2024 Full Review Keri O'Shea Warped Perspective The tremendous reach which has been enjoyed by Talk To Me is hardly the fault of the team behind Baghead, even if we accept that Talk To Me is a very good horror story in its own right. But so is Baghead. Apr 13, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

      Jan M So this wont make you jump out of your seat, nor will it gross you out with its lack of gore.. but it is a fresh story concept with a few twists I didnt see coming. It was overall a satisfyingly compelling watch. I think the hate is unmerited. It could have done a lot more on the lore, as it was rushed through. I would love to see a prequel on the origins of her, as thats the real story here. But the actors all did a great job, and I'm glad to have seen it free on AMC+. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/20/24 Full Review Mirza M 'Baghead' is a flawed horror that fails to capitalize on its potential concept. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 05/18/24 Full Review Vinh D Looked like a B-Grade movie. I mean, they tried. Just don't say I didn't warn you about it. If you have a few pennies to spare, the movie is fine. But if you want a quality movie and used the typical asian horror movies, look elsewhere. I want to rate it less, but it did well for the trailer. And it is an alright movie for your Halloween spin. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 05/06/24 Full Review Paul M Buckle up, horror buffs, for a wild ride through the subterranean depths of pub ownership and the perils of dealing with an HOA more concerned with Norse Ruins than keeping a proper brew on tap. Baghdad throws everything at the wall and somehow manages to stick the parts that matter, delivering a gloriously schlocky good time. One thats destined to lift even the crankiest of "spirits!" 7.0/10 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/02/24 Full Review Guzz L Interesting, the story has different plot elements, it's a horror movie that also involves discoveries. It has good performances, a good atmosphere, a lot of tension and some good scares, it just could have invested a little more time in the conclusion. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/28/24 Full Review Susan I The movie Is brilliant story wise You might see some repetitive loud noises for cheap jump scares. At first that might throw some people off. But Is a definite fresh new story unlike others. Much like " talk to me " I highly recommend giving it a chance. This could potentially span a sequel for a more In depth story Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/19/24 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
