The Samurai Ratings & Reviews
Horror Queers Podcast
Trace Thurman
A surreal exploration into the mind of a man questioning his gender identity, Der Samurai has style to spare.
Horror Queers Podcast
Joe Lipsett
Till Kleinert's feature directorial debut is surreal, gorgeous and complicated. Go in prepared to let it wash over you, then expect to have long, nuanced conversations afterwards.
TheIndependentCritic.com
Richard Propes
It would be nearly impossible to not admire the world that Kleinert creates that exists somewhere between dream and fantasy.
Wicked Horror
Joey Keogh
Der Samurai asks more questions than it answers, and is stronger for it.
The Film Stage
Amanda Waltz
Der Samurai is an unusual little gem of a film that excites with its own offbeat blend of horror, suspense, and visual elegance.
The Dissolve
Tasha Robinson
It's so evocative on an instinctive level that its panting excitement overwhelms the sense of questions unanswered, and often unasked.
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
Neither of the actors is particularly strong and some scenes are clumsily handled but this only contributes to the gutterheart sensibility of a film that is considerably more enjoyable than it ought to be.
CultureCatch
Brandon Judell
Let me just share that this is 1 of the more oddball romances you'll ever witness. Imagine George Romero directing Harold and Maude. As for the finale, which includes a wolf, a full erection, and fireworks cascading from a torso, it's a hoot and a half.
The Playlist
Drew Taylor
It's a film better experienced than intellectualized, one that unfolds like a dream. And like a dream, afterwards, you'll probably ask yourself: Did I really just see that?
