Piggy Ratings & Reviews
Rolling Stone
K. Austin Collins
Desperation can make anyone kind. That's one takeaway from Piggy. Another is that Galán is an actor worth keeping an eye on, a very canny choice for a movie so poised to walk tonal tightropes, drifting between misery and humor, shame and shamelessness.
IndieWire
Jude Dry
Part coming-of-age romance, part psychological body horror, "Piggy" firmly establishes Pereda as a bold new voice in feminist horror.
48 Hills
Dennis Harvey
Pereda does have a bold, assertive directorial imprint. But this treads close enough to traditional exploitation terrain that I hope next time she'll write material with more originality and depth.
Culture Mix
Carla Hay
The movie's ending could have been better, but Piggy is still an intriguing and well-acted horror movie that provocatively explores issues of bullying, self-esteem, and revenge.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Tim Cogshell
A very strong film that manages to meld more than one genre.
Los Angeles Times
Noel Murray
A masterful mix of dark comedy, social commentary and raw suspense.
AV Club
Luke Y. Thompson
...this is not a film in the business of offering comfort. It bleakly suggests that we're on our own, and maybe need the push that a glimpse at the alternative provides.
RogerEbert.com
Nick Allen
A slight parable about having a corrosive hate in one's heart.
Slant Magazine
Steven Nguyen Scaife
Throughout, writer-director Carlota Pereda announces herself as a skilled manipulator of audience sympathies.
Austin Chronicle
Jasmine Lane
Fascinatingly human as it is morally squirm-inducing.
New York Times
Elisabeth Vincentelli
Pereda carefully sets up our expectations only to subvert them.
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
A gory slasher film... also gutsy, exposing how excessive bullying can lead to unforeseen consequences for the tormentors.
AWFJ.org
Alexandra Heller-Nicholas
There's nothing patronizing or moralizing about Piggy, and it's all the better for it; simultaneously a strong character portrait and a twisted coming-of-age film, this is tough but satisfying viewing.
Chicago Reader
Sheri Flanders
A meditation on the banality of horrible people, Piggy is an instant horror classic.
Harper's Bazaar
Tomris Laffly
Pereda fashions a startling character study that veers into grand questions around morality, dejection, revenge, and justice, but one that smartly refuses to deliver easy answers.
The Playlist
Carlos Aguilar
Whatever quibbles one may have with the director's construction of the character, what's not up for debate is how astonishingly committed Galán is to the brutal physicality of the role.
RogerEbert.com
Isaac Feldberg
Galán's intensely anguished performance, eyes wide and body heaving with exhaustion, often feels like it's running on adrenaline.
Variety
Guy Lodge
Pereda's viciously impressive debut uses standard genre shocks almost as macguffins; it's the all-too-recognizable horror of brutalized adolescence that really makes us wince.
Bloody Disgusting
Meagan Navarro
Piggy gives viewers a lot to chew on in this intimate morality tale carried by Galán's haunting performance. Pereda casts an unflinching eye on Sara, making it feel even more personal and impactful through style and restraint.
The Hollywood Reporter
David Rooney
This disturbing psychological drama spirals into blood-drenched horror, its wild genre extremities never disguising the feeling that its social commentary on violence and abuse comes from a very real and personal place.
