REVIEWS:
““Caveat” exists in a liminal space between genres, which is fitting for a film about the skeletons that might hide inside the walls of an old house. However, Mc Carthy’s mix-and-match approach reveals the story’s need for a more solid foundation.” www.indiewire.com
““Caveat”: Irish screenwriter/director Damian McCarthy’s atmospheric feature debut is creepier and so much better than “Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It,” even if its concept, at least initially, is hard to swallow.” www.mercurynews.com
“Caveat is a slow burn that will not be to everyone’s liking. Folks like their houses thoroughly haunted and their psychological thrillers brimming with psychos. Caveat toes the line with a skeleton cast and a house so dank you can smell the mold through the screen. There are long stretches with no dialogue, only desolate atmosphere, and often Isaac is left to his own devices while his memories knit themselves together.” www.moviereelist.com
