Sitges – Catalonian International Film Festival: Best Motion Picture nominee!
Movie Score: 10/10! “Brilliant stuff, truly…brilliantly acted…West’s bold, stylish direction and brilliant use of color and shadow push Pearl into a whole different level of horror…This isn’t just a great horror movie or one of the best films of the year (though it is on both counts); it is a modern-day classic begging to be studied, analyzed, dissected, and discussed for hundreds of years to come.” (Film Threat)
5 Stars! “Stunningly melds horror with classic Hollywood melodrama…Pearl embodies the principle of ‘Go big or go home.'” (Seven Days)
4/4 Stars! “As for Goth…this is next-level stuff from the actor. I couldn’t take my eyes off of her…It’s stunning, beyond extraordinary even…it’s also one of the best films I’ve seen in 2022. It’s pretty much perfect.” (Movie Freak)
5 Stars! “Pearl is a marvelously crafted piece of horror from a brilliant filmmaker that wows viewers with impressive visuals” (Reel Reviews)
*Please take note that doors open 30 minutes before showtimes. We encourage people to arrive early. We have a small box office, a small candy bar, and a single-screen cinema, meaning that when most of an audience shows up a few minutes before showtime, it causes a bottleneck. If possible, we appreciate you arriving a little bit early to pick out your seat and get your popcorn. Thanks for your help!
