Village VoiceRob StaegerNov 17, 2015
Not every gamble works: The girls' intrusive Bejeweled-like social-media game annoys at every turn, and the plot itself is murky. But #Horror mesmerizes nonetheless, filled with tension, cruelty, and can't-look-away style. Read full review

The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckNov 19, 2015
Infusing its generic horror tropes with vaguely satirical aspects, the film doesn't really work on either level. Unintentionally campy (or purposely, it's hard to tell) and marred by ridiculous plotting and dialogue, #Horror is mostly just a horror. Read full review

Not that anyone watching #Horror is likely to care in the slightest about who is doing the killing and who will survive. Read full review
