Broadcast Signal Intrusion is an exciting mix of genres and ideas that sucks you into its compelling mystery

| Jul 11, 2024

Starring Harry Shum Jr as a video archivist on a mission, Broadcast Signal Intrusion is a paranoia-fuelled, noir-like sci-fi thriller that doesn't quite know what to do with its irresistible premise.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Aug 26, 2023

[the film] keeps the audience in the dark as much as it does its protagonist... The viewer inevitably grows more entangled in James’ investigation, and by extension becomes complicit in his increasingly erratic behaviours.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 13, 2022

Broadcast Signal Intrusion really delivers on slow creeping atmosphere. Directed by Jacob Gentry and written by Phil Drinkwater and Tim Woodall, it riffs on a few classic movies but its a credit to the films construction that nothing feels derivative.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 5, 2022

An OK horror cocktail, with a finale that tries ever-so-hard to deliver something ugly and confronting, which, of course, is what we all want from horror films. Predictability prevents it from paying off, but undemanding fans of the genre should be happy.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Apr 2, 2022

The script comes up with sardonic lines and occasional well-turned scenes, but if you don’t enjoy sitting in dingy rooms full of old technology, the film’s ambience is hard work.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 27, 2022

The rest of the picture – a muddle of loose ends and shapeless paranoia – fails to match the malevolent potency of these video nasties in miniature.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 27, 2022

The ending, especially, is hugely disappointing, even moronic.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 25, 2022

[An] unsettling paranoia thriller...

| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 22, 2022

Broadcast Signal Intrusion uses its characters until their specific narrative purpose is served...The movie creates an effective atmosphere, but it gets a bit too lost in its own mysteries.

| Feb 12, 2022

The film is not perfect, but it's certainly interesting, and a treat for those who are interested in the subject matter. And the visuals on these clips are truly chilling.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Nov 19, 2021

An unsettling thriller without much of a payoff.

| Original Score: B- | Nov 4, 2021

A riveting sensory fueled obsessive mania that intensifies into a tension-fueled explosive final act that is killer.

| Oct 31, 2021

With an ending that's open to interpretation, this is ultimately a frustrating quest that most will find fruitless. Take a note from the rabbit: Scurry away.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Oct 27, 2021

The surface concept is more compelling than the underlying mystery in this low-key thriller with a major dose of nerdy nostalgia.

| Oct 22, 2021

A movie that needs to just go off the rails at a certain point and arguably doesn't do so until its disappointing final scene.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Oct 22, 2021

Director Gentry does a lot with clutter, small spaces and darkness to create a mood of paranoia, but neither he nor the writers have worked out a way to make Broadcast Signal Intrusion deliver what it seems to promise.

| Original Score: C+ | Oct 22, 2021

As long as "Broadcast Signal Intrusion" stays in the realm of shadowy ambiguity, it's effectively suspenseful.

| Oct 22, 2021

By the end, we have a general idea about what the filmmakers are trying to say and an even vaguer notion of what did or didn't happen.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Oct 22, 2021
