There is only so much you can do with such a small amount of source material, and in compensating for that “In the Tall Grass” repeats itself too much.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Aug 22, 2022

Tthis is hands-down one of silliest and funniest - unintentionally - alleged horrors I've seen in years.

| Oct 22, 2021

Not every question gets answered, but enough are to make for a satisfying conclusion.

| Original Score: 3.5 / 5 | Jun 25, 2021

It's always a gamble when stretching a short story's narrative to feature-length. That gamble doesn't pay off in Vincenzo Natali's In the Tall Grass.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Dec 30, 2020

In The Tall Grass is nothing more than a serviceable dread concoction as Netflix tries to make hay while the sun shines on Stephen King adaptations. But even in Netflix's Stephen King catalogue, it is not exactly the cream of the crop.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jul 24, 2020

This was a great short film stretched out and padded to become a dull feature length flick.

| Original Score: C | Jul 8, 2020

There was an opportunity for a short, sharp and nasty horror film here, but what would have been a tight 70-minute thrill ride has been bloated out to an hour-and-a-half.

| Original Score: 6/10 | May 19, 2020

Sure, In The Tall Grass could have been worse. But it also could have been better.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Apr 19, 2020

A tedious slog struggling to reach the finish line.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Apr 14, 2020

It all sounds intriguingly mysterious, but in play it's a frustratingly wrought sequence of vague weirdness that seems to be weird for the sake of it, until finally it has to somehow end.

| Original Score: C+ | Jan 8, 2020

As brilliant as it is stupid, Natali's take on King and Hill's work is a doozy.

| Dec 6, 2019

Starts off very promising and succeeds early on as unnerving thriller before getting choked out by an out there final act.

| Original Score: 5/10 | Nov 5, 2019

Netflix seems to be banging out Steven King adaptations as fast as King used to bang out books. This one, based on a novella by King and his son Joe Hill, is quite a decent little creeper too.

It's the perfect time of year to find something new and scary on your doorstep, and In The Tall Grass is just the movie you should let enfold you, if only for a little while, in terror as far as the eye can see.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Oct 25, 2019

Despite the eerie setting and some visual flair, In the Tall Grass struggles to keep the viewer invested and fails to be particularly scary.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 21, 2019

This is a movie that is not quite ambitious enough which ends up making it feel pretty generic. You aren't missing much by not watching IN THE TALL GRASS, but if you do you will certainly be left wanting more.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Oct 17, 2019

The more it went on, the more it lost me, and I started to see this as a short story being stretched to feature length.

| Oct 16, 2019

While not as lame and lazy as a horror like The Silence, In the Tall Grass is standard-fare and little more than a cheap thrill.

| Oct 15, 2019

A decidedly forgettable project. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 14, 2019

The film ends up in its own weeds. [Full review in Spanish]
