They Wait in the Dark Ratings & Reviews
Moving Pictures Film Club
Ygraine Hackett-Cantabrana
As well as this inadequate portrayal of abuse the storyline behind how exactly Amy and Judith (who are both white) came to adopt their son Adrian (who is Black) raises questions about the moral viewpoint of the film itself.
Film Threat
Andrew Stover
This gripping thriller is admirable in its dedication to doing the unexpected, all while making you feel deeply unsettled.
Culture Mix
Carla Hay
The horror movie They Wait in the Dark is nearly derailed by the amateurish performances from almost all of the cast members. However, the screenplay and direction hold up quite well, when it comes to suspense and a few surprises.
Fox 4 Kansas City
Shawn Edwards
Patrick Rea continues to demonstrate his grasp of the horror genre. "They Wait in the Dark" is effectively creepy with just enough thrills.
KKFI-FM (Kansas City)
Russ Simmons
"They Wait in the Dark" is a tight, well-paced little chiller.

The film's secret weapon may very well be young Patrick McGee, a sliver of light in an oh so dark film.
Morbidly Beautiful
Stephanie Malone
It's a film that explores the horrible, heartbreaking way we often embrace the monsters we fear most. This is indie horror done right, and it's the kind of film that takes risks and passionately attempts to give audiences something unexpected.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
Rea, a prolific independent filmmaker, deploys the gore judiciously and his actors are above reproach.
AIPT
Nathaniel Muir
The movie is a patient one that says as much in its quieter moments as the most violent. It will be a difficult watch for many as more is revealed, but the ending is a satisfying one that leaves some hope.
Cinema Crazed
Emilie Black
They Wait in the Dark is a solid piece of survival and supernatural film giving the audience a mostly simple story that is given the right amount of time to develop, the right performances to show itself, ...
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
They Wait In The Dark was made on a microbudget, but one would never guess it. It looks as good as many a major studio production, and the sound work is also excellent. This kind of quality is incredibly difficult to achieve with such limited resources.
