Dark Summer Ratings & Reviews
Kelly Sanchez
March 20, 2025
Honestly it's stupid at the end it's not quite finish really I thought it was more to the movie really
The Blogging Banshee
Molly Henery
It was a unique idea and I feel like if I read it as a book, I would have enjoyed it more. Unfortunately it wasn't executed well in movie form. It was just generally boring and not even remotely scary at any point in time.
TheHorrorShow
Scott Weinberg
A crisp 80-minute horror movie that may take a few scenes to get rolling, but also showcases some very interesting ideas and a great lead performance.
Aisle Seat
Mike McGranaghan
An intriguing, if flawed look at the nature of obsession.
TheFrightFile.com
Dustin Putman
Mopes around for 82 minutes, inspiration in short supply.
Under the Radar
Cody Ray Shafer
Another paint-by-numbers supernatural thriller.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
It's hard not to think of viewing "Dark Summer" as running-time served.
Movie Mezzanine
Andy Crump
Dark Summer isn't a very poetic film. It's barely coherent.
We Got This Covered
Matt Donato
Dark Summer starts with the best of intentions, establishing a strong cyber-thriller background, but a sleepy ghost story sullies what intrigue director Paul Solet initially builds.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
This low-budget psychological thriller jettisons any chance of consistent suspense pretty quickly in favor of cheap frights and generic supernatural nonsense.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
Retains eerie elements and strong performances, once again showcasing Solet's gift with the genre and his ability to turn limited funds and locations into a compelling tale of psychological erosion.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
There is something profoundly draining and suffocatingly incestuous about watching a film that's dedicated to watching a computer screen.
Film Journal International
Maitland McDonagh
Dark Summer falls short of knock-your-socks-off greatness: It's creepy and intelligent, but never leaps off the screen and into your nightmares.
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
As an exercise in atmosphere, this claustrophobic creeper does a lot with a little, even if the movie winds up providing just superficial shivers.
Variety
Dennis Harvey
A clumsily established premise develops into little more than a series of familiar "gotcha!" scares.
New York Post
Sara Stewart
The mumbly dialogue between the three teens - realistic though it probably is - makes it hard to care too much about Daniel's housebound fate.
Village Voice
Rob Staeger
Paul Solet's direction relies on disorienting tight shots as Daniel creeps through the halls, followed by never-quite-frightening appearances by Mona in her bloody hoodie.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
The cacophony of visions, broken mirrors, and mutilations only points to the ghost in the machine respecting The Craft as its spirit animal.
