REVIEWS:
“Ironically the shadow is often revealed in the exact location that we expect, but Glover’s direction and Adrian Ellis’ score, which employs operatic choir music, ensures that foreknowledge never dampens its impact. Inevitably these encounters escalate in proximity and threat, eventually leading to a shocking and memorable climax, though some will find the lack of concrete answers or proper resolution unsatisfying.” www.bloody-disgusting.com
“The dialogue is minimal and straightforward, and Johnston confidently carries the film on her shoulders, resulting in a dark and beautiful film that slowly draws you in and will leave you thinking about it long after viewing. A snowy backdrop, a hypnotic performance from Johnston, murderous hallucinations, and an eerie score, make The Strings a sensory experience that is enchanting and profoundly horrific.” www.dreadcentral.com
“The Strings is superb at the jump scare through its use of soft or no sound. Being that the film is themed with a musician in an abandoned and isolative landscape, Glover again feasts on his atmosphere to deliver the goods. The minute I strain to hear the theoretical physics Catherine is watching on her laptop or suspect the movie is done setting up a scare, it seems to strike.” www.horrorobsessive.com
