Stitches Movie Review: | |
It's like a twisted balloon animal filled with blood and guts, waiting to burst. Nigel Floyd-Time Out Neither funny nor scary, just amateurish in a bad student film way. Alistair Harkness-Scotsman Imitation blood flows like a tsunami and the aim of disgusting the audience while raising a few heartless laughs proves moderately successful. Philip French-Observer [UK] A must for those who appreciate imaginative gore-mongering, with scene after scene of brain-scooping, lung-exploding, eye-javelin-ing brilliance. Natasha Hodgson-SFX Magazine Stitches is bursting at the seams with good ideas, but director Conor McMahon stumbles when it comes to the execution. Niki Boyle-The List This low-budget throwback to Eighties slasher movies is stronger on gory deaths than lethal one-liners but if you have the stomach for it, it's an efficient little shocker. Allan Hunter-Daily Express There are moments of inspired black comedy in this Irish slasher spoof, but the movie is undermined by its obviously miniscule budget. Rich Cline-Contactmusic.com Anyone with a fear of clowns would suffer an irreversible breakdown if they watched this kids' entertainer as he goes on a murderous spree of vengeance. Grant Rollings-Sun Online It somehow wasn't funny or scary enough - though I do have to admit it is always more than revolting enough. Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK] There's nothing inherently funny or provocative about a bunch of obnoxious kids being relentlessly horrible to a psychologically troubled peer. Paul Callaghan-Little White Lies Often playing as bright and colourful as the clown's outfit itself, Stitches is better as an idea than it is in execution. Graham Young-Birmingham Post The horror-comedy genre is notoriously hard to pull off, but this Irish effort makes a decent, trashy fist of it. Tim Robey-Daily Telegraph Stitches gets the gore-to-laughs ratio exactly right and is often both inventive and side-splittingly funny, but it's also slightly let down by dodgy dialogue, poor performances and lacklustre direction. Matthew Turner-ViewLondon Deeply icky on many different levels, with Ross Noble's feature debut illuminated by stomach-churning effects. Kim Newman-Empire Magazine A Halloween crowd-pleaser that's missing a few tricks and treats. Rosie Fletcher-Total Film it is for the over-the-top inventiveness of its latex gore effects that Stitches is most memorable. Unfortunately, though, despite the best efforts of its young cast, the film is more crude and mean-spirited than ever actually scary or funny. Anton Bitel-Little White Lies | |
