Reviews:

“During this film’s unbelievably dull sub 90-minute runtime, it was impossible for me to tell if it was actually aware that it was an extremely low-budget TV movie. That was probably the worst part of it; if you are stuck with little to work with, show that you are all right with that. Don’t set out to make a simple slasher film but present assomething that we’re supposed to get really invested in. That just won’t fly. So for the viewer, you are then forced to look for other aspects of the film that could salvage it. Sadly, this one offers nothing of value besides a few derivative attempts a jump scares.” Henry Faherty, MovieTVTechGeeks.com

“Thankfully, The Crooked Man is no Sharknado; despite a good helping of genre clichés it does a great job creating a sustained mood of dread mixed with a compelling story. Add in some interesting characters who display a baseline level of competence and intelligence and you have yourself an enjoyable start to the Halloween season.” Ann Laabs, SciFi4Me.com

“SyFy Original film The Crooked Man is a straightforward made-for-cable fright flick. Director Jesse Holland has previously played in more daring indie horror territory with the psychologically-centered spooks of Yellowbrickroad and We Go On. Here, Holland sticks instead to by-the-book standards of pat plotting and simple setups that read as routine, but with a mild manner that is amusingly entertaining rather than strictly pedestrian.” Culture Crypt
