The Free Fall

Adam Stilwell crafts a lush and mysterious psychological horror film that draws the audience in with its stylish atmosphere before delivering a knockout punch in the final act.

A sharp and savvy slice of psychological horror that keeps you guessing all the way up to its wallop of an ending.

Answering the central riddle of what is going on in this herky-jerky, weirdly gleeful psycho-thriller seems like a lose-lose situation for the audience.

I certainly cannot recommend this nonsensical feature.

The Free Fall ultimately isn't anywhere near as ambitious as it seems to have aspired to.

The atmospherics are skilfully bonkers, including some entertainingly deranged touches.

Loads of the elements you need in the construction of a horror film. Yet here the pieces to not add up to something good.

The Free Fall becomes another horror movie that has the spirit of the genre at heart, but not the execution to leave an impact.

A cursed trifle with an unpleasant aftertaste. If only the plot lived up to the decor.

[T]he movie ... creates an overwhelming mood of uncertainty and dread, which is gradually undermined by its progression toward a fairly routine ... resolution.
