Right at Your Door Reviews
Any American viewer is susceptible to the frightening imagery and aberrant post-9/11 paranoia present in Chris Gorak’s independent thriller
| Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 6, 2023
The tone stumbles here and there, and the twist may leave you scratching your head, but the strength of its lead performances - by Mary McCormack and Rory Cochrane - as well as Gorak's muscular direction - powers it through the rough patches.
| Original Score: 6/10 | Mar 18, 2020
The melodrama that ensues and budgetary constraints ensure that this picture still has many flaws, most notably a conclusion that goes against the grain of the picture's primary thrust. But the central premise is certainly an intriguing one.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 3, 2018
Strikingly different than most end-of-the-world midnight-movie scenarios.

A realistic chilling post-9/11 doomsday film.
| Original Score: B | Feb 15, 2009
Right At Your Door effectue en somme un retour fracassant sur les deux dernires grandes tragdies ayant secou la population tats-unienne.
| Original Score: 7/10 | Aug 7, 2008
As a story, it's about twice as long as it should be, but as a horror experience, it's just about right.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Feb 9, 2008
...a low-key yet sporadically tense drama...
| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jan 31, 2008
While Brad fumes in his tight shots, Lexi is mobile.

Nightmarish.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 8, 2007
The acting's pretty good, and the cinematography keeps things lively.

The agitated, theatrical dialogue reaches frenzied, jackhammer proportions even during the film's supposed quiet moments; it's thoroughly draining.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 30, 2007
A pretty chilling affair.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 26, 2007
It will rattle your comfort zone and keep you unnerved throughout.

There's no levity at all to distract from the unrelenting horror, unless you consider the entire film to be a big sick joke
Full Review | Aug 25, 2007
After the Katrina tragedy, the filmmaker's fears are both well-grounded and keenly realized.
Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5 | Aug 24, 2007
Cunningly riffs on everything from George Romero's Night of the Living Dead and The Crazies to our current terrorist-related night-sweats.
| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Aug 24, 2007
McCormack and Cochrane can't transcend the cliched, meandering dialogue, so Brad and Lexi's dilemma never feels like anything but a didactic contrivance.

[Stars] Cochrane and McCormack have zero chemistry and their characters are so different that they never compute as a couple.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 24, 2007
Crosses our real-life national nightmares with a cleverly constructed thriller to create a movie that is smart, impeccably acted, and extremely unsettling.
