Discriminating horror fans should also note that it's the most exhilarating fright flick to hit theatres since last year's The Descent.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 6, 2010

Severance is a story of terrible things that couldn't have happened to funnier people.

Full Review | Mar 6, 2008

Sitting through its increasingly sluggish pace feels like, well, work.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 3, 2007

For the most part, the scary parts are the scary parts, the funny parts are the funny parts, and never the twain meet.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Sep 12, 2007

The result is a cathartic hoot, relishing its own carefully doled out carnage.

| Original Score: B+ | Aug 11, 2007

Will surely make you laugh, but the guffaws are few and far between. That's hardly a caveat when you consider the statement made here, though...

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 13, 2007

A slasher film with a brain, cleverly constructed with strong performances and storyline....The Office meets Deliverance....

| Original Score: A+ | Jun 21, 2007

Like a special episode of 'The Office,' scripted by Clive Barker.

The cast shows spark and gusto, especially Laura Harris as a vulnerable yet intrepid survivor type and Danny Dyer as a bent druggie who straightens out long enough to fight back.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jun 8, 2007

For the odd at heart, it will be worth the wait.

It is wonderfully wry, and contains some great gags.

So there's still a smart office-horror movie left to be made. In the meantime, Severance is just another paycheck.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 8, 2007

Like the Britain of Tony Blair, it's neither bloody awful nor bloody great. Which isn't to say, rest assured, that there isn't plenty of blood.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jun 8, 2007

[Smith] paces the gore too unevenly, leaving the cast standing around and griping for vast chunks of time. And the jokes ... are either too broad or too underplayed.

For fans of the genre, this is the film of the year.

Full Review | Original Score: 4.2/5 | Jun 8, 2007

It turns into yet another graphic Hostel-style killfest that eventually washes away all the fun ... with lots of blood.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 7, 2007

"Severance" is just enough of an exploitation satire (think, Roger Corman in his heyday) to hold your interest beyond its gratuitous knife, blood and breast recipe for suspense and shock.

| Original Score: C+ | Jun 5, 2007

The sadistic silliness is given a heavy-hand.
