The Pact Reviews
Los Angeles Times
Mark Olsen
The explanations for what has been going on are weird, fantastical and sort of reasonable, within the context of the story, maintaining the film's sense of grounded directness up to the very end.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
A tightly controlled low-budget chiller whose occasional moments of unexpected special effects are set up beautifully by long periods of suspense.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
In the end, like a lot of genre movies, this one pulls from different inspirations, and so weighs in, by turns, as overly predictable and satisfyingly recognizable (part of genre cinema's one-two punch).
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
In truth, there's nothing here we haven't seen before. But McCarthy, who also wrote the straightforward script, keeps the pace moving and the atmosphere eerie (if rarely terrifying).
AV Club
Noel Murray
More horror movies set in the 21st century ought to integrate technology into their scares as well as Nicholas McCarthy's The Pact.
Way Too Indie
C.J. Prince
There is a lot of potential shown in The Pact, but the clunky writing and bombardment of clichés end up overshadowing the better qualities of the film.
Slant Magazine
Calum Marsh
When The Pact descends, finally, from suggestion to explication, the scares regrettably slink away.
Village Voice
Nick Schager
There's no pact in The Pact, which is indicative of this faux spooky tale's guiding illogicality.
Hollywood Reporter
Todd McCarthy
Basic, efficient little horror item scares up a few little shocks, possibly enough for a modest commercial career.
Battleship Pretension
Rita Cannon
The Pact takes its time revealing anything specific about the horrors that hide in the family's house. For most of its running time, we don't have a good idea what Annie is up against, which makes the slow trickle of clues that much more tantalizing.
IONCINEMA.com
Nicholas Bell
Desperately underwhelming.
Three Imaginary Girls
Amie Simon
Horror, mystery, murders, secrets, and mediums-it all gets mixed up with some very effective storytelling that unfolds in a quietly unsettling way.
Assignment X
Abbie Bernstein
The Pact could have used a dialogue polish, but mostly it's a bracing low-budget horror film that plays with expectations to deliver scares and satisfactions.
BrianOrndorf.com
Brian Orndorf
A satisfying ghost story without leaning too hard into trends. It's not a deliciously overwhelming feature, but The Pact has modest vision worth a look.
TheHorrorShow
Scott Weinberg
Manages to deliver a decent combination of supernatural and practical horrors.

[VIDEO ESSAY] "The Pact" is a horror movie with training wheels. It's for audiences who have never seen one before and don't want to be too scared.
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
The Pact fizzles out significantly as it marches towards its rather generic final act...
Film Journal International
David Guzman
The best thing The Pact has going for it is the way it manages to play its cards right, despite the fact that it doesn't have many aces up its sleeve.
MovieMartyr.com
Jeremy Heilman
While The Pact hardly forges new ground for the genre, it comes about its scares honestly, without reliance upon gimmicks or cheap tactics.
We Got This Covered
Matt Donato
Nicholas McCarthy admirably tries to deliver both a terrifying tale of horror while mixing in more gritty elements, but doesn't explain much as to why.
