Reviews
Performances are solid all round, but the standout is Irish actor Keoghan. Shy and lonely one moment, utterly blood-chilling the next, he's a mesmerizing presence on this screen of menace.Peter Howell, Toronto Star
{Sacred Deer] is one of this year's most frightening thrillers.Brad Miska, Bloody Disgusting
There's not only tension and intrigue in the film's terse exchanges and increasingly brutal stakes, but ample black comedy as well.Sarah Ward, Concrete Playground
