This oddball film's mashup innovations often come at the price of storytelling discipline and, to some extent, common sense.

The actors get a chance to create a real relationship, and they make the most of the opportunity.

Neil Genzlinger, New York Times

A landmark of irresistible weirdness, "Spring" brings horror out of its long winter hibernation.

Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune

The protagonist of this low-budget indie is so well characterized that it might have developed into a straight drama instead of the horror movie it becomes, though of course that's the key to most good genre films.

J. R. Jones, Chicago Reader

Horror invades the proceedings, but it doesn't hijack them. The film continues to zig where others might zag.
