Strange Harvest Ratings & Reviews
RogerEbert.com
Peyton Robinson
Hinging on the nitpicking anxieties of the true crime genre, "Strange Harvest" maintains an air of abject horror, even if its penchant for ease nudges focus out of the way.
The Daily Beast
Nick Schager
"[Its] tale about a California serial killer with supernatural intentions is filtered through a persuasive verité lens that, however skin-deep, underscores the enduring effectiveness of its non-fiction devices."
Dread Central
Mary Beth McAndrews
Stuart Ortiz crafts a phenomenal, disturbing, and creepy pseudo-documentary with 'Strange Harvest: Occult Murder In The Inland Empire'.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
It's a grisly piece of work - drawing at least minor inspiration from the New French Extremity movement, of all places - but one that manages to display its cutthroat ambitions with surprising subtlety.
Fish Jelly Films (YouTube)
Joseph Robinson
Deliciously gripping and gruesome, Strange Harvest is true-crime TV turned cinematic.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
Ortiz breaks or doesn't convincingly fake the rules of his self-imposed gimmick too many times for Strange Harvest to fully complete its trick.
Variety
Dennis Harvey
It's a clever assembly that seldom tips its hand, with onscreen participants doing a fair job of not appearing to be professional actors.
New York Times
Erik Piepenburg
The film is naturalistic enough to be convincing and sick enough to be disturbing, even if the acting falls scattershot on the persuasiveness scale.
Screen Rant
Nick Bythrow
Strange Harvest is an edge-of-your-seat true crime horror film posing as a documentary, expertly using its presentation to unravel a chilling story.
Heaven of Horror
Karina Adelgaard
Fair warning: The murders in Strange Harvest are often quite creative and brutal. In fact, several of them could have been featured in 'Se7en'.
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
While the climax sputters a bit, the rest is taut and engrossing.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
The feature delivers on its invented reality, making for an interesting examination of storytelling. Dramatically, the offering is a bit lacking, as there's a reason why this kind of programming typically runs under an hour in length.
Reeling Reviews
Laura Clifford
If "The Blair Witch Project" presented its story as real via the found footage format, "Strange Harvest" breaks new ground effectively doing the same using the true crime documentary format...Ortiz spins a fascinating tale of a ritualistic killer
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
Chilling, suspenseful and well-edited.
Geek Vibes Nation
Phil Walsh
Strange Harvest is a bountiful feast of horror that mixes mockumentary elements with suspense and realism. We are left on the edge of our seats throughout, and at the end, wanting to dive back into the world the crew has created.
FandomWire
Sean Boelman
Stuart Ortiz's Strange Harvest will have you both looking away and on the edge of your seat - a combination that will prove to be completely unforgettable.
Loud and Clear Reviews
Roberto Tyler Ortiz
Despite its flaws, Strange Harvest is a gripping, unsettling entry into the mockumentary horror subgenre.
The Blogging Banshee
Molly Henery
Strange Harvest: Occult Murder in the Inland Empire expertly crafts a gory supernatural mystery in a true crime format.
Cody Leach (YouTube)
Cody Leach
Strange Harvest manages to impressively craft the experience of a real life crime documentary. Attention to detail in the shooting and editing is top notch with good performances portraying victims and investigators realistic reactions to interviews.
Bloody Disgusting
Meagan Navarro
Ortiz pushes the subgenre forward with a heady and unsettling immersion into the realm of true crime with a distinct horror twist.
