Reviews [may contain mild spoilers]:
“It is easy to state that The Communion Girl is just a very usual supernatural horror film, with the usual visuals and the expected overreliance on jump scares. For those in favor of such aesthetics and plot, this film can be a rather enjoyable watch.” DMT
” …Víctor Garcia […] draws on a convincing period setting to nourish his scare story – even if the shocks aren’t especially chilling, and the sense of claustrophobic entrapment in the milieu is undermined by a cop-out open ending.” 3 out of 5, The Guardian
“The film really only loses the thread in its last fifteen minutes, when it takes a sudden twist that doesn’t quite work or make a whole lot of sense. The Communion Girl works best when it focuses on the friendship between Sara and Rebe, the lore of the doll, and Marisol’s backstory. Overall, The Communion Girl has a few decent scares.” Signal Horizon
