Honeydew Ratings & Reviews
The Daily Beast
Nick Schager
Has an appetite for the grisly, not to mention a thing or two to say about venturing into the middle of nowhere-and taking a bite out of morsels that come from unknown origins.
RogerEbert.com
Tomris Laffly
This listless genre exercise mostly plays like a film-school-spun tribute to The Texas Chain Saw Massacre with some Hansel and Gretel clumsily mixed in, but without a political or philosophical foundation to stand on.
Paste Magazine
Mary Beth McAndrews
While the focus on Honeydew's visuals and heavy atmosphere can overpower its narrative, Milburn's distinct vision and keen knowledge of horror tropes lead to quick deconstructions that make us confront our expectations of genre films.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Christy Lemire
There is such specific, strange, and disturbing imagery here. It is so haunting. You will laugh just to relieve the tension.
The Only Critic
Nate Adams
Running a sluggish 107-minutes, Millburn's editing doesn't maintain a sense of awareness and occasionally fails to sustain itself, but there's enough unsettling madness lurking in the corridors to create a slick, uneasy, viewing experience.
MovieJawn
Dan Scully
A welcome entry into the American rural horror canon.
The Film Stage
Jared Mobarak
Milburn writes so much foreplay that the script's eventual release is but a whimper.
The Blogging Banshee
Molly Henery
Honeydew is a disturbing slow burn with bite.
The Last Thing I See
Brent McKnight
There's potential in Honeydew from both an aesthetic and story perspective, which makes it all the more maddening that it misses in such dire fashion.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
I'm sure "Honeydew" will have its intended effect on viewers who relish A24-style spookiness, but such appreciation requires a lot of patience that Milburn doesn't earn.
Silver Screen Riot
Matt Oakes
Time has always shifted to accommodate the agrarian folks though Honeydew takes more advantage of time than daylight savings, regularly allowing for scenes to drag on to exactly twice the length they ought to.
The Lens
Andrew Wyatt
Honeydew freely borrows familiar elements from several notable influences, but Milburn's bizarre stylistic stamp gives the story a harrowing unpredictability.
Common Sense Media
Jeffrey M. Anderson
While there are many horror movies about innocent travelers tangling with rural creeps, this one makes the formula bracing again, relying on actual internal logic and an intense, foreboding mood.
Ghastly Grinning
Ryan Larson
It's a sickly sweet slice of horror that is as delectable as it is distressing, tapping into the best of Hooper and Craven, and Milburn has stamped himself as an exciting director to keep your eyes on.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
The showiness is finished, so to speak, with a misanthropy likely inspired by the 1974 "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre," but miles more callow than that film.
Nightmare on Film Street
Jonathan DeHaan
There is a foreboding sense of unease oozing from Honeydew in its strongest moments. It's firing on all cylinders in those more anxiety-amped sequences but the climax reveals a different film that feels in-line with more by-the-books rural horror.
AWFJ.org
Alexandra Heller-Nicholas
Reviving the spirit of '70s North American rural horror while very much still feeling like a film tapped into out contemporary moment, Honeydew is one of the wildest, weirdest horror films of the year.
Austin Chronicle
Richard Whittaker
The opening acts are a marvel of mood and tone.
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
Its narrative loops around like the passage of the seasons but doesn't deliver as much sustenance as its delicious appearance suggests.
Bloody Disgusting
Meagan Navarro
Milburn takes the familiar tropes of a subgenre and reconfigures them with a wacky new take that favors the unpredictable. It makes for one depraved mood piece full of warped humor and shocking violence.
