‘The Night of the Virgin’ MOVIE REVIEW: Extreme, Grotesque and Gloriously Insane
An utterly gobsmacking entry into the body horror sub-genre.
An utterly gobsmacking entry into the body horror sub-genre.
The technology push doesn’t quite correlate the way it should.
Filled with moments that will satisfy every type of fan.
Don’t bother.
Some inventive kill sequences aside, the film falls short with plot and characters that rarely rise above mediocrity.
Uninspired direction and a screenplay happy to sprinkle facts and tick off mainstream pleasantries.
Impossible to watch this movie and not be distracted by the ever-present shadow of Alex Garland’s vastly more cerebral ‘Ex Machina.’
A deeply affecting call to action, and a must-see film.
Despite the many solid aspects, the film falls back on a murky and contrived revelatory final act.
Eddie Redmayne is delightful in the lead, his signature quirk and introverted mannerisms fitting Rowling’s cinematic universe perfectly.
