Despite its many drawbacks, Subkoff's film deserves to be seen, if only for its wildly imaginative use of the medium and for the urgency of its message, which is dire, bleak - and unforgettable.

Director and cast
Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
First-time director Subkoff shoots even the mundane sniping in horror mode, and makes the hallucinations pay vivid dividends:
It's... made with verve, style, and sparing gore by Tara Subkoff, whose overwrought concern for kids today is more than made up for by her promising debut's grimly mysterious mood and flair for the hipster grotesque.
"#Horror" is a bit like someone who is genuinely scared of something but tries to laugh it off.
For all its bursts of violence and descending-guillotine sound effects, "#Horror" feels driven more by social commentary than by outright terror.
