The film's bizarre, gore-soaked premise actually manages to ease viewers into the far more uncomfortable topic of grief - after all, dying is easy, but living with death is much more complicated.

You can go for the laughs or go for the chills with a high-concept horror like Nina Forever. You shouldn't muddle about the boring middle.
Peter Howell, Toronto Star

A diabolically effective anti-date movie.
Michael Rechtshaffen, Los Angeles Times

The beauty of Nina Forever is how it upends expectations, avoiding any generic resolutions and refusing to fall into stereotypes of male and female behavior.
