Marama Ratings & Reviews
The Blogging Banshee
Molly Henery
Mārama is a cinematic masterpiece, using gothic horror to tell a breathtaking, heart-wrenching tale of self-discovery and retribution.
The Queer Gaze (Podcast)
Joe Lipsett
As a Gothic mystery, this is pretty straightforward and easy to figure out. What elevates the film is Ariāna Osborne's outstanding performance, the centering of Māori rage and the tastelessness of British racism. All of those elements feel fresh and raw
Audrey Fox Reviews
Audrey Fox
A vicious, unflinching look at colonialism through the eyes of a Maori woman whose assimilation to white culture does not protect her from the abuses visited upon her people.
Horror Press
Samantha McLaren
Mārama is a shining example of all the stories that badly need to be told, and all the ways that the subgenres we love can benefit from an injection of fresh blood.
Simply Cinema (Substack)
Caitlin Kennedy
Marama is, simply, rich. Rich in its remarkable costuming, aesthetics, and production design. Rich in its execution of all the finest traditions of gothic horror. Rich in its multi-layered horror of confronting the ghosts and monsters of colonialism.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
Stappard has a strong sense of the genre, refining an atmosphere of dread instead of relying on jump scares or loud noises.
Guy at the Movies
Jeff Nelson
Stappard's unnerving world works best when it allows us to stew in discomfort, rather than relying on lackluster jump scares in this haunted house of colonization.
But Why Tho? A Geek Community
Kate Sánchez
Anti-colonial horror at its finest, Mārama is moving, cathartic, and one of my favorite films to see come out of New Zealand.
Next Best Picture
Dan Bayer
Stappard's control over the film's tone ensures that the audience never loses sight of the painfully real history that inspired this piece of entertainment.
Hey, Have You Seen ...?
Jared Mobarak
Their third act is a bloody and bold bid at reclamation. More than one woman's vengeance, Mary is a symbol of familial, cultural, and indigenous retribution.
