What is this - a student film? How did it get a 65% on RT? What am I missing?

Beyond absurd cannibal family who apparently like cheeks only second to ass? However, watchable if you use a computer and hit advance repeatedly. Glacial pace concept horror. And what is Lena Dunham doing here? Was she a fellow student with the director or lose a bet with someone? The two leads do a rather good job with limited internal motivation. Not their fault – that would be the script's.

Despite being well shot and decent acting from the lead actress, I couldn't figure out Sawyer's character atall. Plus it was far too long. The sound effects were grating as was the prolonged scenes of nothing happening. Also an incredibly joyless experience. I stopped half way through and gave up, I battled through the rest and regretted wasting my time. It was pointless, there's no motive and the direction was poor because for much of the movie it wasn't clear what on earth was happening. As a horror fan, this was joyless, tasteless and utterly dreadful.

Actually a fan of the way this was shot. It’s just too slow, too long and way too boring to be remotely good.

Very creepy with a "Midsommar" kind of vibe. I cannot recommend it.

It just didn’t add up for me. There was just so many opportunities to leave or not be in the situations that they were in. A million red flags. Cool premise I guess but the logic doesn’t really make sense. This movie is exactly what you think it’s about from its description.

If you want to see a quality horror movie…. This is it !! An instant cult classic. Shot, Directed & Edited beautifully .. the sound mixing was especially good- and really wonderful acting all around.

I enjoyed this film. The cinematography is really atmospheric and there's a lot of tension. It was also engaging and very scary!

SPOILER. time I will never get back. awful plot. nothing redeeming about this flick. the background noise/soundtrack was irritating and a distraction. in terms of the plot, the likelihood that two elderly people are able to maim and maintain partial bodies on a farm is not likely. they managed to keep alive a head/ torso in a box with a compression suit and by feeding her cheeks. not sold. to add a gross factor they try to mate the remaining bodies. its all ridiculous and not remotely enjoyable to watch. i also dont understand the lemons

Started out ok enough but even with suspension of disbelief I cannot believe an 80yr old woman who can barely move can overpower a young man. Then again he was pretty much a vegan as was his girlfriend so I guess that explains it. Scariest part of the movie- fat drooling moaning Lena Dunham showing up. Nasty.scary. terrifying!!!!

Horrible horrible horrible. Don’t see through to the end as it won’t get any better nor will you get any satisfactory repercussions for the cannibals. Looking for a good scare but this was just a supreme waste of my time. Just when you think it might get better it will get worse. Run, don’t walk from this one.

This movie has everything it needs to be great EXCEPT the timeline. It's way too off to feel believable. There's no way that everything happened in one night.

Strange film. As a lover of cheap horror, I feel like I've seen this story several times before, though. Just different characters, but same progression.

A couple finds shelter in a farmhouse occupied by a family of psychos. What comes next is a succession of creepy and torturous behaviours from the inhabitants of this slaughterhouse. "Honeydew" pays tribute to the horror flicks of the 80's. However, the movie is condemned by a boring script, an annoying soundtrack and a ridiculous dose of weirdness.

‘Honeydew’ Turns Road Trip into Bizarre, Hallucinatory Backwoods Nightmare

Kind of a blackhole of "elevated horror." The all style, no substance argument can be applied to a lot of elevated horror and it's kind of reaching a breaking point here. Sure, Honeydew can be pretty stylish. It's bizarre. But to what end? It's not scary. It's almost laughable often which ruins it's few creepy and tense scenes. It's all just ridiculously overdone. For god's sake...the son shaking all the time. Stop it. It really doesn't help that Honeydew isn't even remotely a unique concept in the overall genre and comes to a laborious and predictable finish. When the impression is this poor, the negatives compound when you decide to put stuff like a marimba rendition of "O Holy Night" in your score as a sort of soundtrack dissonance. Making a better movie would maybe earn that type of treatment.

There are few horror movies that reach the highest level of film making. The Eyes of My Mother (2016), Audition (2006) and The Lighthouse (2019) are some that come to mind. I just watched another- Honeydew (2020). It would have creeped out Hitchcock.

As bad as it gets. Can't believe it was even released

Quirky dark-comedy horror that is built more on atmosphere and style than comedy or horror, and that's okay because it worked well... until it didn't. The tone and pace wear thin in the second half where it's pretty much all there is due to hardly being able to see anything due to low light and darkness. Ultimately, it reminds me of a more adult and more demented spin on Hansel & Gretel.

Long and weird as hell. I'd skip this one.
