With a unique blend of style and content, an escalating discomfort in atmosphere, a score that sounds like it was spawned from the nether regions of hell, and three ferocious performances, Hungry Hearts is this year’s most unique horror film. Read full review

Based on a novel by Marco Franzoso, Hungry Hearts is a riveting, relentless film. It may also be an infuriating one, and not always in a good way. Read full review

Dubious ending aside, Constanzo's approach to structuring, shooting and pacing the tricky material proves masterful and memorable. Read full review

Deborah Young

Sep 13, 2014

The idea is original enough to pique curiosity, and the small cast, led by Alba Rohrwacher and the up-and-coming Adam Driver of HBO’s Girls fame, digs gamely into the material, but something is missing. Read full review

The film’s initial naturalism is warped by overheated film technique and a dead-ending screenplay. Read full review

It’s a slow-motion horror movie founded on utter nonsense. Read full review

It is earnest and tortured and pointless, in a very self-serious suffer-for/with-art fashion. Read full review

Indie drama completely made from inside the box. In every way.
Honestly the only thing this movie left me with is remembering the years when Adam Driver came so close to being typecast in characters like this after his career took off with HBO's Girls.
