It's really unique, it kind of has its own sub-genre and I really recommend it to everybody.

| Original Score: 8/10 | May 7, 2021

Genre elements swirl around them - part fantasy, part science fiction - but the core of the film is something more complex, effective, and worthwhile.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Feb 19, 2021

Spring is an incredible haunting and romantic tale that will make the heart ache in the way that only those really special films can manage.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Nov 26, 2020

Sun-drenched horror at its ingenious best.

| Nov 25, 2020

This depthlessness is due to Benson's inability (in this film) to write profound dialogue.

| Jul 1, 2020

It's beautiful and heartwarming with smidgen of gross. It's mysterious and pulls you in to make you feel.

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

Spring had serious potential but squanders it all, delivering some real thrills but unable to function as an effective romance.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 16, 2019

Engaging indie bittersweet love story taking on the genres of both horror and comedy.

| Original Score: B | Jul 9, 2019

Death leads to dubious love in this endlessly inventive delight that pays no regard to traditional genre boundaries

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 15, 2019

Once Moorhead and Benson lay everything out, including a fairytale-esque twist on Louise's condition, the mystery disappears, only to get replaced with something more on-the-nose and messy.

| Original Score: 6.5/10 | Jun 6, 2019

Taylor Pucci and Hilker do a commendable job of selling these two souls, adrift in very different seas.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 5, 2019

In Spring, though, the MacGuffin hijacks the film. Its "mystery" element is also its weakness.

| Oct 3, 2017

The best part is its smart and sensitive way of allowing the dark fantasy to enhance its love story rather than overshadow.

| Original Score: A- | Feb 27, 2016

Sort of like 'Before Sunrise,' but with tentacles.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Nov 5, 2015

It's an odd yet oddly engaging combination of horror, romance, and dark comedy, and it's certainly one of the most original genre films you'll see all year.

| Aug 23, 2015

Think Before Sunrise as written by HP Lovecraft; or, a Richard Linklater version of Species.

| Jun 30, 2015

The gene-splicing here is pretty intriguing.

| Jun 29, 2015

Don't read anything else. Just see it. Spring is special.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 29, 2015

As an experiment in what can be done once you tear down the boundaries of what defines certain genres, Spring is successful.

| Jun 26, 2015

It's a film whose individual parts are perhaps more impressive than the whole, with innovative drone-cam shots, some special effects work which recalls John Carpenter's The Thing and two very committed and empathetic lead performances.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 27, 2015
