Critic Reviews
-
Jeannette Catsoulis, New York Times
"Silver Bullets" neither pleases the eye nor stimulates the mind.
-
Mark Holcomb, Village Voice
Swanberg ignores tired supernatural scare-flick trappings and locates terror in the shadowy, passive-aggressive process of making, and watching, movies.
-
Richard Brody, New Yorker
To elicit the film's flayed sensibility, Swanberg has developed a flagrantly expressive camera style that virtually gashes the screen with intense contrasts, bright lights, and screaming colors.
-
Kam Williams, NewsBlaze
Mumblecore movement explores horror genre, Joe Swanberg-style!
-
Alison Willmore, AV Club
A significant step forward for Joe Swanberg, a filmmaker best known for chronicling the romantic misadventures of futon-owning twentysomethings.
