Reviews:
“I Hear the Trees Whispering is a departure from József’s other found footage films, with less of the scare and more of the mystery, and you will not see the twist coming until it hits you right between the eyes.” Road Rash Reviews
“Wisely not stretching its plot any further than necessary, I Hear the Trees Whispering runs seventy-seven minutes including credits. That’s just long enough to tell its story and wrap things up on a note […] Gallai tried something different here, and for the most part, it works as long as you don’t mind the slow burn.” Voices from the Balcony
