Bloodthirsty Reviews

Bloodthirsty‘s unique premise and the way it was carried out through the character of Grey was executed well.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Jan 22, 2023

Simple yet effective, the werewolf horror movie Bloodthirsty takes its time to build to the inevitable transformation scene. This movie ... offers an interesting allegory about how the quest for fame and fortune can consume people.

It's grisly enough to hold the attention, but some earthy energy in the writing and direction would have allowed the story and characters to resonate much more strongly.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 9, 2021

Bloodthirsty isn't so much about its plot: it's about finding one's self, about music; it's about its gothic style and its women. It's all smoothly and impressively done.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Sep 8, 2021

If you're going to make your audience wait over an hour to see some werewolf stuff, then you have to nail it. Sadly, though, it's just not there..

Another rejig of the werewolf story, Bloodthirsty has a knockout soundtrack, an interesting story hook, and some solid performances.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 31, 2021

It's a testament to Beatty's talent as a performer that she puts it all across with a straight face, but there are times when the film's camp self-seriousness may make you laugh out loud.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 25, 2021

For all its teeth gnashing about unleashing one's animal instincts, Bloodthirsty keeps things awfully tame.

| Jun 6, 2021

The pop music theme, an LGBT angle, and a studio Svengali who records in a gloomy mansion in the woods, gives Bloodthirsty some points for fresh twists in an overcooked werewolf genre.

| Original Score: B | May 21, 2021

[A] more than competent exercise in the werewolf canon, sufficiently distinctive for genre fans to give it a watch. It's just not liable to blow them away.

| Original Score: C | May 10, 2021

It's the kind of low-budget horror that does little to justify its own existence.

| Original Score: C- | May 6, 2021

There's an all too familiar kind of horror here which makes the first half of the film an uneasy watch. Director Amelia Moses takes it slowly, letting us see the trap.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | May 5, 2021

Bloodthirsty is an intimate take on a familiar subject, giving the viewer something new to work with.

| Original Score: 4/5 | May 1, 2021

The movie lives up to its title often, but there's still a strong story and performances to keep the viewer involved throughout.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 1, 2021

An overwhelmingly poetic and disturbing film about an artist's struggle with identity amidst creation. The music is incredible and Beatty's performance is deserving of laurels.

| Apr 30, 2021

The Lycan-esque thriller functions in slow-burn mode until the final act which kicks in with grisly detail.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Apr 30, 2021

Bloodthirsty does well to build tension and mystery around exactly what Grey is turning into. Her transformation is gradual, well paced, and will leave you on the edge of your seat.

| Apr 28, 2021

Drips with disgusting fun, mixes familiar story beats to craft a contained blood fest.

| Original Score: B- | Apr 28, 2021

A clever and brilliant psychological horror tale that subverts and mesmerizes. [Full review in Spanish]

| Apr 28, 2021

The creatures of the night may make beautiful music, Bloodthirsty howls, but that often comes from an inner darkness.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 27, 2021
