Displaying both a nasty edge and a playful sense of humor -- but thankfully, never at the same time -- Brit import Kill List is several cuts above its fellow midbudget horror brethren.
Andrew Barker, Variety
Overview
Nearly a year after a botched job, a hitman takes a new assignment with the promise of a big payoff for three killings. What starts off as an easy task soon unravels, sending the killer into the heart of darkness.

When it's all over, audiences are sent reeling out of the theater with heads spinning and guts churning.
Mark Olsen, L.A. Weekly

Deeply edgy, gory crime film maintains perfectly calibrated tension before dropping a bombshell that will be too much for some viewers.
John DeFore, Hollywood Reporter

One of the scariest films I've seen in ages, although I cannot in all honesty explain exactly what the movie is about.
Rene Rodriguez, Miami Herald

"Kill List" has a slow build, but don't be lulled into complacency. This is one of the most violent and disturbing films you'll see in an art house.
Peter Hartlaub, San Francisco Chronicle
