BOFCA REVIEW ROUND-UP: 03/01/2019

greta-isabelle-huppertGRETA

“Good trash is hard to come by these days, but watching the legendary Isabelle Huppert sink her teeth into the “stalker from hell” archetype in GRETA feels like getting struck by a bolt of lightning sent from the gods of camp.” – Charlie Nash, Edge Boston

“GRETA is [Neil] Jordan’s most gonzo fairy tale since 1999’s unfairly derided IN DREAMS, and in Huppert he’s found his ideal Big Bad Wolf.” – Sean Burns, The ARTery

“GRETA has impressive credentials for a horror/thriller movie. It’s a B-movie with A-movie production values.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies

“By tearing cinema down to its foundations once again, this restless raconteur is, as always, forcing us to look at the familiar as if for the first time.” – Sean Burns, The ARTery
