The Vourdalak Ratings & Reviews
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
Flippant humor slowly gives way to an unavoidable onslaught of anxiety that overwhelmed my senses, leading to haunting final images I will uncomfortably savor for quite some time.
Strong Female Antagonist
Jenn Adams
The Vourdalak, a terrifying journey into the heart of familial darkness. This frightening creature brings death and destruction to those he loves most and lurks in the shadows of his children's dreams.
Style Weekly (Richmond, VA)
Chuck Bowen
It's trim, tart, funny and quite beautiful in its own right.
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
By taking risks "The Vourdalak" brings some fresh blood to the genre....The juxtaposition of dark humor and bracing violence, melded with a gruesomely erotic charge near the close, makes for a hauntingly unsettling brew.
HorrorBuzz
Norman Gidney
A shrewdly produced period piece that captures the intimate story of a simple narrative.
Sarah G Vincent Views
Sarah Vincent
If you rush to the theater this weekend and head for "Longlegs" (2024), you may be disappointed, but "The Vourdalak" is a guaranteed good time with a bleak narrative, a colorful sheen and an economical ninety-minute run time.
We Live Entertainment
Aaron Neuwirth
Director Adrien Beau chose to go with an elaborate, life-size rod puppet creation that is entirely creepy and effective in its own right. This is the sort of detail that can make or break the already stylish approach to this story.
Boston Hassle
Oscar Goff
Gorcha is, in the context of the film, a thing which should not be; by portraying him as a puppet, Beau ingeniously transfers that feeling to the viewer.
Film Freak Central
Walter Chaw
The Vourdalak is not only an example, it's a critique. And it's not only a critique, it's an emotional expansion of decades of LGBTQ subtext in genre. I love this film, and can't wait to see what Beau does next.
The Pitch
Abby Olcese
It's the kind of enjoyably weird movie you keep in your back pocket to whip out for unsuspecting friends who you know are already on its wavelength. In other words, it's a ready-made cult classic.
Loud and Clear Reviews
Hector A. Gonzalez
In The Vourdalak, French filmmaker Adrien Beau reimagines the vampiric creature from Slavic folklore as a vessel for inherited trauma.
Pajiba
Jason Adams
You're not likely to stumble upon another movie that smashes together the same bizarre list of ingredients quite like the weird and wild and wonderful The Vourdalak does... triumphantly strange... this movie sets quite the scene indeed.
Spectrum Culture
Josh Goller
The Vourdalak is a stylistic gamble that paid off, its unnerving mood and atmosphere only heightened by an innovative and macabre creature design too peculiar to easily forget.
Reeling Reviews
Laura Clifford
Adrien Beau exhibits a skillful ability to balance tone in his feature directorial debut...At times absurdist, surreal and playful before turning tragic and horrific, this French folk tale posits that love blinds us to danger.
Dread Central
Josh Korngut
Adrien Beau's 'The Vourdalak' takes on the homecoming of inherited trauma with an unsettling blend of uncanny grotesqueness and pastoral charm.
Cinapse
Matthew Jackson
...one of the year's most effective and haunting horror films, and a must-see twist on vampire lore for genre devotees.
Variety
Michael Nordine
Everything about the film manages to be forward-thinking and old-school at the same time, giving the genre a bite in the neck it might not have wanted but certainly needed.
RogerEbert.com
Tomris Laffly
A proudly old-fashioned Gothic fable with grain and grit, the delectable "Vourdalak" is swift to announce in its early moments that we are in the hands of a skillful stylist.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
Surrender to its vintage vibe and its emotional kick may surprise you.
AWFJ.org
Alexandra Heller-Nicholas
A dark, delicious fairytale fantasy brought to life with profound emotional integrity, The Vourdalak breathes new life into the far-too-often pedestrian vampire movie
