Wounds is a visceral, disturbing descent into the destruction of a man that hits all of the conventional horror notes with sadistic joy taking viewers on a ride straight to hell. Read full review

Voracious genre consumers should get off on trying to decipher the densely textured film's murky ambiguities. Read full review

The lack of local color notwithstanding, the movie more than fulfills its promise to unsettle and to incite shivers — and it doesn’t quit. Read full review

Ultimately, it’s hard to figure out exactly what movie Anvari was trying to make. Read full review

The film’s threadbare story runs parallel to some compelling ideas about masculine insecurity, internalized pain, and the price of genetic privilege, but Anvari’s well-calibrated jump-scare machine is too preoccupied with gross effects, unmotivated jolts, and that strange rash that’s growing in Hammer’s left armpit to engage with any of them.

There’s nothing more terrifying in this film than the creative talent wasted on such shockingly mediocre material. Read full review

This movie is terrifying and should be getting way more credit. As a horror fanatic I wasn’t expecting much but was clutching my seat the whole time. Really hard to describe this film.
