Come to Daddy

Brutal violence abounds in these coastal mysteries, but they're not all show.

Incredibly violent and very fun and very strange.

Any film that opens quoting William Shakespeare and Beyoncé is meant to be regarded with skepticism and giggles, but this dog gets sillier by the minute.

Providing both a tight script and interesting directing, and blending the best of indie horror with B-movie violence and gore, it's exactly what it needs to be for both the audience and Norval.

For anyone who can suppress the urge to gag, Come To Daddy's enthusiasm can be catching.

A film that's as clever as it is strange.

The most terrifying thing called Come To Daddy to appear on screen since the Aphex Twin video!

It's all more moving than you would expect.

A taut, well-executed film.

Things don't stay so meaty, at least on a metaphorical level -- as the meat gets bloodier the good stuff starts to spray in every direction, the floor drops out, and the movie in its second, third, fourth, fifth acts loses some focus
