Critic reviews and ratings
-
The film presses all the right buttons, ticks all the boxes.
-
Many horror tropes later, you realise that it's the slow pace of the film that's the real killer.
-
While the effects are slick and the ghosts match up to international standards, they cannot save this film from turning into a painful two-hour-long watch.
-
We learn from Amavas that a Gothic mansion, jump cuts galore and red herrings aplenty thrown into the mix sadly don’t translate into a horror film.
-
As for the significance of the title, spirits get stronger during an eclipse, we are told. Watch this total eclipse of the art at your own peril.
-
...each and every scene — from approaching a door with dread to bending over to reveal a dark apparition standing right behind, has been borrowed from some film or the other. That the makeup and prosthetics here seem dated and sourced from a Halloween party store also dilutes the overall effect.
-
The incoherence is baffling, and one is only compelled to wonder why a team of qualified artistes would create this kind of cinema.
-
...the film refurbishes old creeps just for the sake of it, with no added ambition or intent attached...
-
...is a boring, illogical, film. A snooze fest.
