The Loved Ones Reviews
Slant Magazine
Calum Marsh
Sean Byrne endows his rote slasher material with the kind of blackly comic wit and levity that virtually guarantee its entry into the contemporary midnight-movie canon.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
Headed by [Jessica] McNamee as the spurned prom-bomb, [Sean] Byrne's debut feature defines "sick and wrong" in all the right ways.
Film.com
Eric D. Snider
Speaking of reusing old premises, The Loved Ones shows the right way to do it. In this outrageously creepy and entertaining.
indieWire
Eric Kohn
It's a terrifying masterpiece that turns high school drama into a literal dead zone.
Variety
Dennis Harvey
Transcends mere torture porn -- though there's plenty for the squeamish to squirm over here -- in its deftly controlled mix of empathy, grotesquerie and sardonic humor.
L.A. Weekly
Scott Foundas
A juicy piece of Ozploitation, [Sean] Byrne's very stylish film pays its respects to Carrie, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and the late John Hughes while finding in its primary location...a speical version of Hell on Earth.
That Shelf
Shelagh Rowan-Legg
[Sean] Byrne has an incredible talent for rhythm and pacing.
HitFix
Drew McWeeny
If you like horror that pulls no punches, this one's worth the effort to track it down and check it out.
Bloody Disgusting
Brad Miska
Carried by strong performances (by everyone) and stunning cinematography by Simon Chapman, The Loved Ones is a beautiful, fresh and engaging horror film that's a must see.
Boxoffice Magazine
Pam Grady
Moviegoers with an aversion to violence will stay away, but genre buffs with a taste for the extreme should ensure healthy ticket sales.
Cinema Autopsy
Thomas Caldwell
You will gasp in horror at the prospect of what is about to happen and then you will giggle in delight that the film actually carries out what it threatens to.
We Got This Covered
David Baldwin
There is clearly a lot of ambition to The Loved Ones and the near-brilliant leading performances help make the film a unique and terrifying experience.
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
The Loved Ones constantly moves in unexpected directions.
Birth.Movies.Death.
Meredith Borders
Sean Byrne has established himself as one hell of a guy to watch with his first feature film, delivering something bright, brand new and deeply felt.
Film School Rejects
Brian Salisbury
The most severe violence in the film is tempered by moments of effective dark humor.
eFilmCritic.com
Erik Childress
Horror fans are going to love this, but those who recognize a filmmaking skill to go along with the gore may appreciate it even more.
CraveOnline
Witney Seibold
I kinda dug the flick.
BrianOrndorf.com
Brian Orndorf
Those with a fondness for cinematic evildoing might find themselves richly entertained by this macabre feature, which somehow manages the finer points of grief and festering wounds with exceptional directorial skill.
About.com
Mark H. Harris
The Loved Ones is a breath of fresh air for the so-called "torture porn" sub-genre of horror movies.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
There's enough genuine tension and imagination to provide some shocks and visceral chills.
