The Severed Sun Ratings & Reviews
Geek Vibes Nation
Cameron Ritter
The Severed Sun is a decent folk horror film that beats its message over the head a little too forcefully without saying anything new. The exquisite technical achievements are let down by a poor story with no memorable performances.
The Reader (Omaha, NE)
Ryan Syrek
This is a witch hunt-centric period piece that doesn't drown itself in a river of pretension, a la Robert Eggers.
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
Right and wrong are blurry concepts here. What might mean justice for an individual could be devastating to the community.
Spectrum Culture
Josh Goller
While the film is beautifully shot...with fog rolling over the river and sunlight streaking through a canopy of branches, the narrative is heavy on witch-hunt tropes and offers little originality, its characters never developed much beyond archetypes.

"The Severed Sun" (2024) is another all sizzle, no steak entry in folk horror.
Screen Rant
Hannah Gearan
The Severed Sun is not one of the strongest horror movies of the year so far, but I had an absolute blast watching Dean Puckett's feature debut.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
It's a shame the whole thing doesn't add up to much on a narrative or thematic level.
Film Threat
Bobby LePire
The Severed Sun is a handsomely produced, eerily directed film. The cast shines from the beginning to the end, with each actor delivering a natural, believable performance.
Loud and Clear Reviews
Joshua Stevens
Borrowing from recent folk horrors like The Witch and Midsommar, The Severed Sun establishes itself as a worthy entry in the genre.
Film Focus Online
Romey Norton
The Severed Sun is a story of awakening. The horror is psychological as much as supernatural. This is a film about control; who has it, how they keep it, and what it takes to break free. The Severed Sun is a gripping horror, you must watch it!
Screen Zealots
Louisa Moore
A skillfully-crafted atmospheric journey through the darker sides of human nature.
