Janiak does find a great deal of success turning that dreamy romance on its head, plunging her leads into a nightmarish scenario and ensuring you'll never forget what happened to them.

For those who have ever nursed suspicions that the answer is "not enough," Honeymoon will inspire chills much more bone-deep than the ones provoked by, say, some poltergeist flinging around chairs.

| Jan 5, 2015

Janiak's directorial debut makes confident use of limited resources to conjure creepy thrills, peering through the cracks in the couple's imploding relationship, spying shadowy monsters lurking in the darkness.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 28, 2014

The honeymoon takes place in -- oh, guess -- a deserted cabin in the woods, like a failed Evil Dead.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Sep 26, 2014

Co-writer/director Leigh Janiak aims for Lars von Trier's sustained dread, but manages only vague unease.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 25, 2014

A tense horror two-hander with serious kick.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 25, 2014

Leslie and Treadaway extract plenty of existential doubt and distressing emotion from what is essentially a claustrophobic two-hander.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 23, 2014

The gory final act can't help but be an explanatory letdown after so much enigmatic fizz, but that's little bother when the rest of Honeymoon delivers a steady dose of newlywed nightmare.

| Sep 12, 2014

I wish the film withheld more information from its audience to raise the overall tension but it's a solid genre pic, made so primarily by two entirely committed performances from its talented leads.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 12, 2014

A lean, low-budget debut that taps into newlywed anxiety with subtle wit and no small amount of style.

| Sep 11, 2014

Achieves emotional resonance due to how effectively it joins its source of horror with the stuff of everyday human anxieties.

| Sep 9, 2014

Honeymoon is a microbudgeted horror movie that achieves some genuinely shivery moments.

| Sep 8, 2014

Neither as purposefully spooky nor as inadvertently campy as the low-budget '50s sci-fiers it often recalls.

| Sep 8, 2014

It waffles between dramatizing youthful self-absorption and succumbing to it, and this tonal instability comes to mirror the domestic discord that's revealed to be its real subject.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Sep 6, 2014

Go see it, it's fun and spooky, I recommend it.
