None of the rabbit holes in The Signal go that deep. But you do leave persuaded that you've discovered some talented people. full review

A slasher fest that references such predecessors as George A. Romero's Night of the Living Dead and Pulse, a 2001 chiller by Japan's talented Kiyoshi Kurosawa, while still remaining original. full review

Ultimately, The Signal doesn't rewrite the rules of horror, the way those masters did. But its filmmakers do provide a creepy, bloody good show. full review

You will definitely appreciate this film's ambition, if not its execution. full review

A startlingly original, smart indie film that so effortlessly mixes high-caliber gore, suspense and shocking violence with vaudevillian hilarity, it's clearly animated by the spirit of the classic Re-Animator films.

The Signal is a well-oiled example of that oxymoronic Tarantino phenomenon: the arty grindhouse picture. full review
