There are interesting themes, ideas, and bits of filmmaking here, but they’re buried in so much that doesn’t connect that it feels like work to unpack them. Go to Full Review Paul Salfen AMFM Magazine 1 day ago
7.5/10
Josh Tanner has made an interesting mediation on grief and family trauma (think an evil version of My Life) that will still satisfy genre audiences and give them something to talk about afterwards. Go to Full Review Chad Collins Dread Central Oct 22, 2026
3/5
Posthumous is plenty scary, but Josh Tanner’s analog horror tale is too familiar to register beyond an immediate jolt. The scares hit, but they certainly won’t last. Go to Full Review Olga Artemyeva ScreenAnarchy Oct 22, 2026
At its core and underneath all the background noise and macabre designs, Posthumous is a film about a fractured identity and the ingrained need to reconstruct it. Go to Full Review Cheryl Eddy io9.com Oct 13, 2026
Bonus points for casting Lowe and Heelan as mother and daughter, whose uncanny resemblance helps make their family bond feel even more genuine. Go to Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film Oct 12, 2026
3/5
