Blood Red Sky is itself a fantastic premise that starts off really well but sadly hits too many obstacles along the way to make a great story.

| Original Score: 6.5/10 | Jan 16, 2023

It may draw from obvious influences, but it is its own movie, standing alone as a suspenseful, moving, and surprising film from start to finish.

| Dec 22, 2022

Blood Red Sky is a victim of its own pacing but it still delivers everything you're looking for in a good vampire movie (not to mention a good heist movie)

| Original Score: 6/10 | Aug 25, 2021

We see how even vampires are better fit for society than terrorists.

| Original Score: C+ | Aug 20, 2021

Runs perhaps a bit too long for its own good, but the flick eventually benefits from nice pacing and several kinetic set pieces.

| Aug 18, 2021

There's something to be said for a film that knows exactly what it is and fulfills its remit to the level best of its ability.

| Aug 10, 2021

A dull vampire thriller that could have been so much more.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Aug 6, 2021

A high-concept contraption done well, Sky may be overlong (at 121 minutes) and silly, but is what it is-and it is fun.

| Jul 30, 2021

It's an utterly ridiculous idea performed with such unflinching gravitas that somehow the whole lurid mess works.

| Original Score: B | Jul 30, 2021

With a mediocre second half and a film running a little too long, and perhaps some predictability, Blood Red Sky still delivers an action-packed violent thrill ride in a claustrophobic setting that creates an engaging horror story.

| Jul 30, 2021

Blood Red Sky is a welcome blood-red treat, a proper horrific vampire story whose supernatural protagonists are more in line with the savage beasts of 30 Day of Night than the lovey-dovey saps of the Twilight saga.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 30, 2021

Perhaps surprisingly given the campy premise (and some genre staples, like the cry, "Does anyone on board know how to fly?!"), the character drama keeps you attentive.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 30, 2021

With nail-biting tension and plenty of bloodthirst, it practically writes itself. There's a good mix of genre favorites like 30 Days of Night (the look) and Train to Busan (the heart).

| Original Score: 8/10 | Jul 28, 2021

The plot - well, it's ramshackle... But as it is, it's still good enough to elevate our heart rates.

| Jul 27, 2021

There may not be much deeper thought going into Blood Red Sky, but this is a thrilling, nasty vampire movie, soaring above the clouds, causing havoc on a 747.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 27, 2021

There's a good movie in there, it just takes a lot of effort to get to and often gets lost in the noise.

| Jul 26, 2021

It blends action-thriller suspense with horror and, although it never quite rises above the formulas of either genre, Blood Red Sky is still fun.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 23, 2021

Blood Red Sky is a touch overlong, but its good parts outweigh the plodding elements. The film never forgets the mother/son bond that fuels the drama, allowing all of the action and bloodshed to be informed by a maternal drive to protect and shield.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Jul 23, 2021

The sense of surprise or playfulness that you would think is inherent in a 'Bats on a Plane' concept just isn't here.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jul 23, 2021

Blood Red Sky makes for a perfectly fine Friday night viewing.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Jul 23, 2021
