Come to Daddy Reviews
The most terrifying thing called Come To Daddy to appear on screen since the Aphex Twin video!
| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 11, 2022
It's all more moving than you would expect.
| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Feb 21, 2022
A taut, well-executed film.

Things don't stay so meaty, at least on a metaphorical level -- as the meat gets bloodier the good stuff starts to spray in every direction, the floor drops out, and the movie in its second, third, fourth, fifth acts loses some focus

As a dark comedy thriller it has its twisted moments with the presence of Elijah Wood, but for some reason its plot of revenge and paternal reconciliation seems somewhat conventional to me. [Full review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 6/10 | May 31, 2021
Come to Daddy has so much more packed into its ninety-three minutes than the tentative start may lead you to expect. I loved it and I have no doubt I'll watch it again.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 4, 2021
A mish mash of revenge, squeamish violence and surreal family drama that should please midnight madness fans but leave others reaching for a barf bag.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jan 30, 2021
Brutal violence abounds in these coastal mysteries, but they're not all show.

It's a strange ride with a great unexpected emotional payoff.
| Original Score: 7/10 | Oct 12, 2020
Come to Daddy is a flawed feature film directorial debut for Ant Timpson, but it certainly hints of great things to come; and that's all we really should ask for in directorial debuts, right?
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Sep 23, 2020
An escalation of tension is a big part of what makes this film work.
| Original Score: 8/10 | Aug 13, 2020
Darkly funny and enjoyably unpredictable. And sometimes plain old weird.

If you like your cinematic tea served with a dash of arsenic and a teaspoon of bile, this gleefully twisted tale of intergenerational angst might be the sip you've been waiting for.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 25, 2020
You might feel like taking a shower after seeing this movie.
| Jul 11, 2020
A demented thriller full of surprises. [Full Review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 11, 2020
As Come to Daddy morphs into a Scorsese-styled murderous landscape, the standouts are Martin Donovan, whose Brian is full of all sorts of shocking surprises, and Mexico's Ona Grauer...
| Original Score: B+ | May 29, 2020
Come to Daddy is wild and wily genre work that slow-builds to a frenzy of violence and weirdness.
| May 27, 2020
... a film well worth seeing, for freaks, the freak adjacent and for fans of films unafraid to take some risks and blow the bloody doors off.
| Original Score: 15.5/20 | Apr 8, 2020
Timpson's clearly into weird cinema, and with Come to Daddy, he's effectively made exactly the kind of film he likes to program at his own festival ... [he also] has a lot of surprises up his sleeve; one of them is very, very clever.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 6, 2020
...an awkward and sometimes silly black-comedy-cum-horror-pic that still manages to feel surprisingly unsavoury much of the time.
| Original Score: 6/10 | Apr 4, 2020
