The Visit Ratings & Reviews

    One of the scariest and most disturbing horror movies I’ve ever seen. I was shocked. Give an Oscar to whoever shot the sequences with the camera, they’re nothing short of surreal, stunning, and absolutely terrifying. A truly twisted masterpiece of a film, with a very moving ending.

    Watching not Mac Miller get a full diaper to the face was priceless. 5 stars!

  • Lasse ViinikainenJuly 31, 2025
    You expect a twist and you get one and the journey there is terrifying.
  • Kevin WardJuly 1, 2025
    Deana Dunagan is so god damned creepy in this as “nana” providing the films best chills. It certainly has a fair amount of plot contrivances to make this implausible scenario at least semi-plausible. I had forgotten that this was presented almost like a found footage flick. The camera work a far less annoying than most found footage features though, almost completely shying away from shaky cam footage. Really fun watch still, and one of Shyamalan’s better films.

    Can confirm this movie gave me a fear of old people
  • parktool69April 29, 2025
    Wacky and weird
  • P. LoganApril 14, 2025
    A suspenseful thriller that will hold your attention through to the end, if you can bear child actors.
  • ScottApril 11, 2025
    No kid at the age of 8 communicates like this. I get these are actors, but come on. Hard to get into this movie as a result. The story was okay, but far-fetched. Who mother would send two kids off that young on a train to visit grandparents they never met? The entire movie was hard to get into because it never aligned with reality.
