If you appreciate dark, original and chilling gothic horror stories with a supernatural twist, if you like low-low-budget indies that somehow manage to look and feel like big-time major motion pictures, you gotta check out Dig Two Graves. Read full review

This is an uncommonly smart, well-made and ultimately touching meditation on grief, revenge and the ordinary perils of adolescence that should resonate strongly with adults and thoughtful teenagers alike. Read full review

Hunter Adams’s Dig Two Graves is that rare chiller conjuring eeriness and dread without defaulting to abundant gore or flagrant nudity. Read full review

The movie looks superb, especially for its minuscule budget. While Adams is clearly a very promising director, however, his screenwriting chops aren’t so advanced. This is one clunky amalgam of mystery and guilt. Read full review

A murky stew of sin, vengeance and expiation boils up and over in Dig Two Graves, a flawed but gripping horror-thriller, handsomely wrought on a slim budget by filmmaker Hunter Adams. Read full review

It’s all quite nicely handled by Adams’ direction and his script (co-written with Jeremy Phillips), though the latter ultimately somewhat disappoints. Read full review

It's an intriguing premise, weakened by a script lacking in strong forward motion. Read full review

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. this movie was actually really good in a Stephen King sort of way I've read a lot of his books and if you read them you'll see that it is sort of the same kind of story of young people dealing with extraordinary circumstances the young actors are incredibly good in it I'm not really sure why people gave it bad reviews it's not really supposed to be a Horror Story it's supposed to be a story about growing up and adversity I think you just have to look at it from a different view point not as much entertainment but from learning something… Expand

A mysterious tale of revenge, with a supernatural slant that has is flaws but on the whole is well made on it's limited budget.

Mind numbingly dull. There's about 15 worth of mediocre story here but at 1 hour 24 minutes run-time I was bored senseless.
