A must-see tense, bloody and darkly comedic love story about a young woman who refuses to be an ex-girlfriend -- even though she's dead.

| Original Score: A- | Sep 28, 2022

Eccentric as this premise is, the Blaines’ screenplay trails behind their confident direction in terms of ringing interesting variations on a limited, somewhat repetitious theme.

| Sep 28, 2022

Although it’s an inspired gamble to introduce familiar genre elements into what’s essentially a high-strung relationship drama, Nina Forever’s repeatedly shifting tone ultimately proves more of a drawback than an asset.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Aug 15, 2016

Nina Forever is so rich with paradox-being ghastly yet gorgeous, sick yet sexy, disturbing yet tender-that it crackles with a dangerous charm and refuses to be forgotten.

The film's bizarre, gore-soaked premise actually manages to ease viewers into the far more uncomfortable topic of grief - after all, dying is easy, but living with death is much more complicated.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Feb 12, 2016

You can go for the laughs or go for the chills with a high-concept horror like Nina Forever. You shouldn't muddle about the boring middle.

The beauty of Nina Forever is how it upends expectations, avoiding any generic resolutions and refusing to fall into stereotypes of male and female behavior.

| Original Score: B | Feb 11, 2016

In addition to its ability to take this odd premise and run with it, Nina Forever scores by being tremendously erotic.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 11, 2016

By turns quirky, charming, harrowing, contemplative, and [gruesome].
