22.01.2022 B&S about films review The Faceless Man "it all works in a Tarantino-pulpy meets a (lighter touch) Shawn of the Dead-kind of way where the detailed set design reminds of Kubrick’s The Shining meets the color palate of a Dario Argento giallo." "And keep your eyes open for the Tarantino diner scene and interrogation scene from Reservoir Dogs, along with the basement bondage scene from Pulp Fiction, and your ears open for the Carpenteresque scoring."... Special mentions to Inn Sonia, Bart Walus and Daniel Reader as the most lovable Barry the C*** https://bandsaboutmovies.com//09/05/the-faceless-man-2020/

19.01.2022 Exclusive Interview with Dread Central on The Faceless Man https://www.dreadcentral.com//exclusive-interview-with-th/
18.01.2022 Marcos Codas of Dread Central Reviews The Faceless Man 3.5/5 "The Faceless Man draws many similarities with genre staples like The Babadook. Not only is the atmosphere in the film broody, but the use of artistic metaphors to convey the struggles of battling with a life-threatening illness make this Australian film pack a mighty dramatic punch."... "The soundtrack and soundscaping of this film are incredible. Its masterful soundscape adds to it an increase in enjoyment in order of magnitude superior to standard indie horror fares." "The Faceless Man is an artful exploration of grief, while also serving a bucketload of gore and guts." https://www.dreadcentral.com//the-faceless-man-review-sca/

17.01.2022 The Faceless Man review by Daniel Edenfield of Monsters Madness and magic "The Faceless Man is a horrifying creature that periodically plagues our heroine throughout the film" "I can certainly tell that the filmmaker loves Tarantino movies"... "You never know what you are in for". -This film embodies that statement " It is the flourish of the Land Down Under, a flourish in which only someone from such a place can achieve." "Grounded, gory, and even funny at times, I was never bored, and the creature fx were awesome." https://www.monstersmadnessandmagic.com//the-faceless-man-

14.01.2022 Starburst Magazine review of The Faceless Man by Joel Harley 4 Stars!!!!! "Director James Di Martino hits the ground running with his debut feature; The Faceless Man is heavy in its themes and subject matter, but oozes wit and style"... "Somehow, this film about a cancer survivor facing (or not) her mortality head-on is not a miserable slog but a bright, vibrant work of punk excess." "A cross between A Nightmare on Elm Street and The League of Gentlemen" https://www.starburstmagazine.com/reviews/the-faceless-man

08.01.2022 Cult Metal Flix Review The Faceless Man A whopping 9/10 here folks -The review did get a few things wrong. The lead Sophie Thurling did not wear a wig after the opening scenes but had a spectacular bald cap made by Emma Rose and Danielle Ruth.... -Viktor Nov is RUSSIAN (NOT SICILLIAN) and his men are called Boris and Morel -Its Andy Mcphee not Kevin Mcphe.... "One thing is unquestionable. Barry certainly knows how to make a sandwich." "The Faceless Man brings a great deal to the arena which has been lacking as of late. A fantastic balance of humor and horror, suspense and gore, tension and intrigue. This is considerably more than just a horror movie" "A bloody good example of Oz-ploitation "The soundtrack is worthy of more than mere mention. Oftentimes chaotic and dense it adds a suffocating layer to the film to effectively heighten the senses when appropriate. The classical passages serve to both introduce a number of the characters (often more than one at a time) in a dramatic flourish and complement the build and conclusion of an emotional tirade with a bang." https://cultmetalflix.wordpress.com//scorching-the-retina/
