Killing Ground's reviews
Media reviews
The Playlist
"But, despite these startlingly resonant relationships 'Killing Ground' cultivates and all the tension it manages to build, the film still buckles, at times, beneath the weight of simplicity. Which is not to say that the film should have been more complex ? its streamlined nature is undoubtedly a plus ? but rather that certain moments ring of being the easy choice."
The Guardian
"Like 'Hounds of Love', 'Killing Ground' is beautifully made and utterly disturbing."
The Hollywood Reporter
"The movie benefits from making Sam the most resourceful character, without turning her into a superhero or rendering Ian completely useless, and Dyer's performance gives the unfolding nastiness a sympathetic center."
Variety
"The filmmaker imparts a sense of aesthetic restraint, knowing that waiting is often more unnerving than blustering straight ahead. Editor Katie Flaxman amplifies the pressure inherent in combining the various time periods, though it?s The Devil?s Candy and Joe Cinque?s Consolation cinematographer Simon Chapman who leaves the strongest imprint."
