Drawn from a short story by the author of Cat Person, Halina Reijn’s English-language debut is refreshingly uninterested in female bodily gore.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 11, 2024

Not only does director Halina Reijn get in a ton of laughs as well as a ton of drama and thrills, but her film takes the murder-mystery premise and turns it on its head in a way a lot of people might not see coming.

| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Oct 5, 2024

…that the final twist redeems this entire film is unusual and admirable; what’s missing here is the engagement and disguise that might have made Bodies Bodies Bodies worth sitting through to appreciate the pay-off…

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 30, 2024

In her controlled English-language debut, Dutch filmmaker Reijn ... uses genre to expose, not without affection, a generation steeped in youth, sex and power — or at least the appearance of it — and how that wreaks havoc on sincere, honest relationships.

Put a group of wealthy, narcissistic Gen Z friends in a large, remote estate filled with drugs and staircases in the middle of a hurricane and see what your outcome is.

Although some of the jokes attached to the script might not hit in full force as much as the writers tended to, the rest uplifts it, making it a worthwhile bloody good time.

| Original Score: B | Jul 25, 2023

Hilariously well acted and a breath of fresh air into the horror genre, Bodies Bodies Bodies is full of Gen Z humour, fake friends, blood, tears and bad decisions.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 24, 2023

Bodies Bodies Bodies is a fun dark comedy that works as a slasher, social satire, and even as a whodunit where no one is who they seem. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jun 12, 2023

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 6, 2023

... A mortal show that combines crime, terror, and comedy. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 8/10 | Feb 6, 2023

A cringey, yet crucial, part of the Gen Z cinematic universe.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jan 28, 2023

The plot isn't particularly amusing, the kills aren't at all interesting, and the point appears to be the pointlessness... the Thelma and Louise of whodunnit plot devices... if you can't take the yeet, get out of the mansion.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jan 18, 2023

Established the next era of slashers.

| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Jan 6, 2023

A24’s horror flick brought together some of the best Gen Z performers, from Rachel Sennott to Amandla Stenberg—alongside Pete Davidson—but Wonders was the clear breakthrough performer.
