Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
...a misbegotten and terminally dated bit of schlock filmmaking.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Tyrrell gives her career best performance as the pscyho.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Ken Hanke
Enjoyably overripe thriller with intriguing subext and a wild performance from the great Tyrrell.

Trace Thurman
This Oedipus update boasts a powerhouse performance from Susan Tyrrell and incorporates some surprisingly progressive queer content for a film released in 1982.
Variety
Variety Staff
Night Warning is a fine psychological horror film.
Film Comment Magazine
Justin Stewart
Asher... directs with a meat-and-potatoes efficiency and visual sense, letting the casting, risk-taking performances, and the twisted, quirky screenplay carry the day.

Kristen Lopez
A kooky little 80s movie worth seeking out if you want to know what William Asher was directing during the decade.
Fangoria
Keith Phipps
It's an exceptional film, both in its execution and its content.
Horror Queers Podcast
Joe Lipsett
I went into this thinking: oh, here's a movie, it's a slasher film and...it's going to have a positive queer representation....I didn't realize that it was going to be negotiating this subject...in such an intricate fashion.
Birth.Movies.Death.
Jacob Knight
We become one with Billy, absolutely terrified as our once loving aunt descends into the depths of psychosis, threatening to butcher everyone and everything we hold sacred.
ComingSoon.net
Chris Alexander
Night Warning is a checklist of ugliness and yet it's so over the top and so briskly paced and histrionic that it's never anything but a greasy joy to watch.
Projected Figures
Anton Bitel
this unlikely outing for William Asher (Bewitched, I Love Lucy) brings a repressive, poisonous dynamic into precisely the sort of domestic space that had featured more salubriously in his earlier TV sitcoms.
Bloody Disgusting
Paul Lê
Tyrrell is indeed the big draw here, but the rest of this horror gem is surprisingly well-crafted, ripe for analysis, and should not go overlooked.
