The Devil's Candy Ratings & Reviews
AV Club
Katie Rife
The film moves so quickly that lingering tonal unease from scene to scene never really has time to stick, and little plot questions only start nagging after the last screaming lick over the end credits fades.
RogerEbert.com
Simon Abrams
With The Devil's Candy, Byrne confirms his status as a filmmaker to watch.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
A terrifying heavy metal treat worth savoring.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
The Devil's Candy isn't particularly bloody in and of itself. It suggests acts of terrible evil far more than it shows, and is all the more intense for it. Highly recommended.
Collider
Perri Nemiroff
The Devil's Candy is the complete midnight movie package. It's got characters to root for, a clever narrative, and a spot-on mix of scares-those that are brimming with energy and others that'll seep in and mess with your head.

[Pruitt Taylor Vince] knocks it out of the park in this movie. Just about every time he walked on frame he just gave me chills. He's such an unsettling presence in this film.
Los Angeles Times
Noel Murray
What makes "The Devil's Candy" a standout is how well-developed these characters are. This is ultimately a movie about parenting, and how even "hip" moms and dads fear the choices they make are hurting their young.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
Mr. Byrne - relying almost entirely on a doom-metal soundtrack, game performers and a grungy palette of oily browns and moldy greens - somehow whips his ingredients into an improbably taut man-versus-Satan showdown.
IndieWire
Eric Kohn
Byrne's artful use of image and sound takes the narrative to a whole new level. Heavy metal music dominates the soundtrack, as well as the characters' lives, providing an ideal conduit for the demonic forces lurking beneath the story's surface.
Austin Chronicle
Richard Whittaker
This is thrasher as rounded character, not stoner buffoon, and that alone makes The Devil's Candy stand out from the crowd.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
It is a lean, mean, tight (under 80 minutes) thriller that draws from other films like it without feeling derivative.
Variety
Dennis Harvey
Accomplished visually and busy sonically, it nonetheless falls short with a story of rock 'n' roll demonic possession that scarcely begins to exploit the ideas embedded in its serviceable premise.
TheFrightFile.com
Dustin Putman
"The Devil's Candy" is smart genre filmmaking, a taut juggling of the menacing and the character-centric.
Film Inquiry
Sean K. Cureton
Byrne directs scenes of terror with a visual aestheticism unmatched by most of his contemporaries.
Decider
Joe Reid
It's one of the scariest movies you can stream.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
The Devil is a source of inspiration in The Devil's Candy, an unsettling horror film about dueling methods of confronting that inspiration.
Chicago Daily Herald
Dann Gire
The Devil's Candy settles for a standard-issue hellfire finale, one that obliterates what tattered credibility remains in Byrne's story.
Paste Magazine
Kenji Fujishima
It is, in other words, the kind of horror film that transcends genre and reaches that rare but exalted sweet spot of touching on genuine human fears.
Tucson Weekly
Bob Grimm
Place Mr. Byrne along the names of Ti West, Robert Eggers and Ted Geoghegan when making a list of current horror directors to watch.
Arts Fuse
Peg Aloi
Horror fans in search of a smarter-than-average thriller that will make their hearts race and their viscera quiver should not miss this one.
