Really like the creepy and slow pace of the movie! Definately a slow burn movie. It might be a matter of taste but I really dig horror movies like these :)
Waste of time. Wouldn't recommend to anyone.
Baffling mystery with a chilly atmosphere. The film ends well despite much head scratching along the way.
"You smell pretty."
Creepy, dreadful, depressing, thick atmosphere and so quiet it's almost dead. It's the slowest slowburn i've ever slowed with, to the point where I could have fallen asleep. I'd like to say that the climax was worth the journey but that would be a lie. In the end i'm not sure I understood what it was going for, I was kinda shocked it ended where it ended and thought there was more to it or an after-credit but there wasn't. Although it had some really cool and bloody moments that felt quite impressive to me visually and creatively. I love the snowy cold weather, frosty windows and winter coats throughout it compliments it's already chilly atmosphere. The Roberts-Boynton-Shipka trinity of amazing young talent was by far it's greatest appeal. Beautiful visuals and great score but the sound... it's something else, I should have watched it with headphones.
Emma Roberts is the Scream Queen of this generation, sadly all her movie are terrible, this one included.
Those that can deal with The Blackcoat's Daughters slothlike pace will be rewarded with an atmospheric showpiece dripping with dread. While not the best in it's class, its still a decent showing for the current renaissance of horror where atmosphere trumps quick, easy scares. Good stuff all round.
I typically enjoy a good slow burn. This was not one I could get into. I actually stopped and picked it up another night. I can appreciate what the director was going for, but it just wasn't for me. Kiernan Shipka was pretty solid, so perhaps is worth viewing for her performance, but it's at the bottom of the pile for me. 2.8
Definitely a slow burn. Only after a few scenes, the Joan character started to make some sense. The name of the movie is a mystery tho - Kat's last name is never mentioned as far as I can remember (and I'm not going to rewatch this movie to find out). Sadly tho, the ending just kind of fizzled out. But if you like slow burns, and an ending with no payoff, you might enjoy this.
Tense but predictable semi-satanic movie that's compelling enough to keep watching. Overal, and in the end, nothing much happened and you've seen nothing that will have surprised you. Never the less it kept me hooked till the end.
Be sure to put your volume at a decent level as you'll experience crackling sound and painful ears otherwise!!
You know i have wanted to watch this movie since it was shot in my hometown but the beginning is so slow that i just haven't been able to do it
It is a nonsense. Really bad
Terrible film, an hour in nothing had happened. Could feel myself drifting....
Well, this movie wasn't very good.
It tried way too hard to be artsy and atmospheric, to the point where it was just silly. Also, I'm a big fan of slower movies, but this movie was just so filled with filler shots, and pretentious stuff that it simply became a bit boring at times.
And of course, the acting was a bit "weird" and the movie made no effort in having rhyme or reason. But I suppose that's supposed to be artsy. I'd avoid this.

Thick on mood, simple but effective story. It's worth a watch once but it's really a slow burn, so beware. The film could really use some improvement on editing/pacing. Good actors but sparse dialogue.
