It Comes at Night's reviews
Media reviews
The Hollywood Reporter
"With his fine cast and his gracefully restrained screenplay, Shults makes horror recognizable."
Indiewire
"Once again, Shults has delivered a top-notch psychological thriller, but 'It Comes at Night' builds an unnerving atmosphere around unspecified sci-fi circumstances."
The Washington Post
?It Comes at Night? will feel superficially familiar to fans of post-apocalyptic thrillers. Set in an isolated rustic home after some sort of plaguelike illness appears to have wiped out much of humanity, the movie focuses, with unflinching scrutiny, on the relationship between two small groups of survivors.
Los Angeles Times
The killing is treated as an act of mercy, but Shults, the prodigiously talented 28-year-old filmmaker who made his debut with last year?s ?Krisha,? refuses to let his characters off the hook that easily.
Chicago Sun-Times
?It Comes at Night? is all about the choices made by good people in the midst of an apocalypse, and how even the best intentions can lead to tragedy.
Variety
"'It Comes at Night' is a good, tight, impressive little exercise. I was held by it, but the movie, while tense and absorbing, is ultimately a tad forgettable, because it thinks it?s up to more than it is."
