Critics Consensus

Rich in atmosphere and intelligence, Spring is a singular horror film with a sneaky, lingering impact.

In Spring, though, the MacGuffin hijacks the film. Its "mystery" element is also its weakness.

3/5

It's a film whose individual parts are perhaps more impressive than the whole, with innovative drone-cam shots, some special effects work which recalls John Carpenter's The Thing and two very committed and empathetic lead performances.

A bit like a cross between Before Sunrise and An American Werewolf in London but nowhere near as good as either.

It's really unique, it kind of has its own sub-genre and I really recommend it to everybody.

8/10

Genre elements swirl around them - part fantasy, part science fiction - but the core of the film is something more complex, effective, and worthwhile.

Spring is an incredible haunting and romantic tale that will make the heart ache in the way that only those really special films can manage.

40 minutes! If you want to watch a (boring) protagonist bear a family death, run from the law after a bar fight, tour Italy with eurotrash, find a job, go on a date… for 40 f ing minutes before a s l u. T he screws turns into a vampire. Then this is your movie. Why can I not give this lower than a 1 star?!!!!! All the film festivals that awarded this should be embarrassed.

This is a nice subversion of the "evil temptress" trope. Cosmic horror can also extremely romantic, even if its all weird body chemistry

I'm writing this while the end credits still roll. I'm still baffled by how good this movie was. The two leads are absolutely convincing, the surroundings are real and feel almost palpable and the story has much more depth than one would expect. I absolutely loved this film and recommend it to everyone who wants to have both heart and intellect engaged.

How does this have so many positive reviews. A very juvenile, half-baked script, maybe teens would like it. I can hardly believe I watched it the whole way through, garbage.

Definitely one of my favorite movies. If you like movies to play out in traditional ways, avoid this. If you enjoy being intrigued, are a bit romantic, and enjoy a thrill, go for it!! If you like it, definitely peep their other movies.
