As is, the film balances its talkative side with its gory side nicely. Wanting more isn’t the worst feeling a film can leave you with.
As in his prior work, the far-reaching curiosity and fascinatingly conflicted nature of Fessenden’s perspective is still his greatest strength.
The idiosyncratic earnestness of an experienced horrormeister playing with the classics still makes for a substantial midnight snack.
This is scruffy around the edges, especially with the awkward insertion of its politics, but there is no denying the movie’s potency as a metaphor for alcoholism.
Blackout is nothing new, or even essential, but it mostly works anyway thanks to Fessenden and his cast’s impressive collaboration.
Larry Fessenden's Blackout is a frustrating bouillabaisse of two completely different movies that happen to be playing at the same time.
Blackout is a werewolf movie with plenty of passion behind it that still doesn't pack the punch it needs to.
