REVIEWS:
“With its beautifully scary color scheme and cinematography, well-constructed characters and writing, and its over the top gore, Al Morir La Matinee is a fantastic throwback to the beloved Giallo film. Not only is this film incredibly fun, it’s a movie that I look forward to watching again and again.” www.dailydead.com
“Argento and Bava vibes streak the screen in sporadic spurts without having to drown the scenery in garish red and green lights. The killer’s black gloves and habit of hiding his face further the feel of a gritty giallo that might make those maestros proud […] Its to-the-point tone is neither comedic nor darkly serious, hitting a nice mix that’s mildly macabre while still fitting the bill as escapist entertainment” www.culturecrypt.com
“The practical effects by Christian Gruaz are about as good as it gets and are the film’s highlight. A scene where the killer has to perform a bit of impromptu surgery on himself being a particular stand-out. Since The Last Matinee takes its plot cues from slashers, the stories and characters have no real depth to them. We know nothing about the killer at the start or end of the film.” www.voicesfromthebalcony.com
