Reviews:
” …the drama of a teenager who wants to free himself from his guilt and stand up for himself always gains momentum, even if the script uses certain clichés. However, the threat could have been staged a little better, because once you have seen it in its “glory”, the drama loses a lot of its impact, as does the atmosphere of the film as a whole.” 6 out of 10, Film Rezensionen
“While few surprises are planted in this Malaysian gem, there are enough terrifying moments and imaginative sequences to tide an audience over that is aching for something different than the typical Christian perspective of exorcisms. Great child actors and mesmerizing Islamic mysticism allow for this feature to differentiate itself from other films with similar setups.” 6 out of 10, Max Does Movies
” …as good as the effects get, they’re still propping up a script that feels extremely calculated […] If you’re in the mood for some jump scares and gory moments, Blood Flower is still an enjoyable enough occult outing. But its lack of local flavour is disappointing…” ★★★ Voices from the Balcony
