Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Aedonerre I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.

Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Mark Strange, bizarre, unsettling. The subplots are all the more disturbing and explain the premise well. The cinematography is just fantastic! The use of black & white film stock, the lighting in the scenes, the intense focal distances, the lingering distance shots. This is how black and with films, done well, are just so very impressive. It is obvious the detail in each scene was no accident much like and great work, the stage is set for a reason. Make sure you take in the subtle placement of seemingly random objects.The unseen can be more upsetting than the typical goriness you usually come across in most of today's horror flicks. Camera angles, blocking of the actors and symmetry of each bit of the movie is many times lacking in what we are watching in today's horror films, you know what's happening, it is bothersome without buckets of blood. It works. When is comes to effective foley work, the audio we hear just off screen from television, record player or radio, it all is wonderfully orchestrated adding suspense or foreshadowing, remarkable but not in your face. I really also enjoyed the soundtrack, ire at times. All adding to the whole feel of the flick.The writing and dialogue is also amazing. Use of foreign language interaction to make a point makes you get an old world kind of feel, adding to the idea that something is happening. We may not understand culturally, but we are not really sure that is the problem. Why are these characters acting oddly? Our perceptions of what is really evil is put on it's head throughout the film. Fantastic! Who is really crazy, really sick, really perverse? Who should we really fear? As it is in real life, evil at first glance is hard to spot, but something in our cut tells us to be careful.Sometimes writers don't make great directors, but Nicolas Pesce hits this one out of the ballpark on both counts!

xdspau There is no redeeming quality in this movie, the plot is ridiculous, no likable characters, didn't give me any reason to sit through and give up 76 mins of my time, tries too hard to shock or be artsy. Appeals to empty-headed pretentious type people, they eat up this kind of trash. The fact that this movie is rated as high as it is, makes me want to puke.I'm a big horror fan. I'm very one dimensional when it comes to movies, if it's not Horror, I'm Not Interested. I like to watch horror movies from the 70's to 2017, so me hating this movie has nothing to do with the genre. To each his own, and I personally can't stand this film. Christ if I had the power to switch the rating of 1980's Demented (rated 3.8) with this movie (rated 6.2), I would.

kosmasp I do understand if some feel like this isn't really a horror movie. But there are different horror movies and some are more fantastical, if that's what you want to call them. Some are understated and do not try to sell a certain point too much and so forth. This is a real slow burner and just for that will not please many horror fans who like their Horror to be explicit.Don't get me wrong, this does get dirty and mean, but it's also very weird and way disturbing. Like really out there disturbing. You could compare this to things like Maniac, but with a family twist. It's really not entertainment as such, but it does succeed in having a despicable person in the lead and still be engaging for some weird reason. I can't really put my finger on it, it may be the black and white nature of the way it is shot, making it look classy, sort of. Whatever it is the filmmaker succeeded in telling a suspenseful story. If it's to your liking or not will depend on your taste - no pun intended

The Couchpotatoes For a horror movie I see that The Eyes Of My Mother gets a high rating on here. But it doesn't deserve that rating in my opinion. It's a mediocre horror movie with a very slow story. It's just hard to stay awake, even with the couple bloody scenes. Well not red blood but black and white since this movie is shot in black and white. I don't know why they do such a thing because to me it certainly doesn't bring anything to the movie. Maybe they thought it would be darker or so but to me it didn't work. The idea of the story isn't bad though. It's just the execution that fails. If it would be shot in color and if it wouldn't be that slow, with also a bit more gory details it could have been a better movie. But like it is now it's just not interesting enough to be remembered.
