The Blackcoat's Daughter Ratings & Reviews
AV Club
Katie Rife
I found February affecting on an emotional level as well, and will be evangelizing for it until it makes it out of the festival circuit and into theaters.
The Last Thing I See
Brent McKnight
Solid performances across the board help make The Blackcoat's Daughter a moderately interesting watch, though the predictability hinders the enjoyment and keeps it from realizing its full potential.
Wicked Horror
Joey Keogh
[O]ne of the most original, and strongly female-led horror movies of the year thus far.
Los Angeles Times
Chris Barton
The characters are too underdeveloped to leave an impression.
Punch Drunk Critics
Roxana Hadadi
There are creepy moments throughout The Blackcoat's Daughter that stick with you, truly adding to the stylistic, haunted-house atmosphere of this whole narrative.
Observer
Rex Reed
None of it makes one lick of sense and it quickly becomes clear that Mr. Perkins couldn't care less.
Entertainment Weekly
Chris Nashawaty
It's an atmospheric slow-burn that's heavy on moody insinuation and light on overt gotcha scares.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
"The Blackcoat's Daughter" is a self-contained tale of evil that knows exactly what it's doing.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
Yes, it's a horror movie (the murder scenes suggest that the director has watched "Psycho" more than once), but even its most brutal acts pulse with inchoate sadness.
NPR
Scott Tobias
The film feels determinedly old-fashioned, awash in a hypnotic ambience that's only occasionally punctured by violence. Like his father, Perkins makes his jolts count.
Los Angeles Times
Noel Murray
"The Blackcoat's Daughter" connects the pieces and ends strongly, though Perkins smartly spends more creative energy on crafting creepy situations than on pointing toward the payoff.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
Although very little happens in the way of traditional horror-movie jump-scares, "Blackcoat" builds and builds toward a profoundly disquieting sense that something really bad is coming.
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
[Perkins] shows a lot of patience for a first-time director. Let's hope the audience stays with him throughout.
Village Voice
Alan Scherstuhl
Few horror debuts unnerve and fascinate as much as this one.
AV Club
A.A. Dowd
The Blackcoat's Daughter is a clammy hand on the back of the neck, a chill running down the spine, a shot of ice water straight to the veins.
RogerEbert.com
Justine Smith
In spite of some compelling performances and a consistent mood, the film fails to ground any of these aesthetic flourishes in story or emotion.
Slant Magazine
Chuck Bowen
Oz Perkins exhibits a committed understanding of the cinematic value of silence and of vastly underpopulated compositions.
The Hollywood Reporter
Leslie Felperin
Evoking some unholy cross between the satanic classic Rosemary's Baby and Lucile Hadzihalilovic's uncannily eerie Innocence, with an inky dash of Lost Highway, [Osgood Perkins' film] represents a remarkable debut.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
February worked my nerves. I found myself actually squirming a bit in my seat, downright uncomfortable by the rising dread that Perkins creates.
Variety
Joe Leydon
Osgood Perkins impresses - and scares - with his chilly debut feature about young women and dark forces.
