Reviews

  • "Location shooting and evocative pop-culture excavation. . . give the film a heightened layer of period detail, filtered through a quasi-Lynchian atmosphere of nightmarish decay"
    Sheri Linden, The Los Angeles Times
  • "It is a haunting movie, one in its director’s total control, full of disturbing ideas and no short amount of magic."
    John Anderson, The Wall Street Journal
  • "Her ensemble—which includes Orange Is the New Black’s Samira Wiley, While We’re Young’s Maria Dizzia, and The Wire’s Michael Potts—is strong, delivering deftly theatrical performances that give 37 a fable feel. But Grasten’s strongest stroke may be the stylish flourishes of horror."
