Through a phenomenal performance, chilling atmosphere and a terrific script, Spiral builds an experience that is as terrifying as it is depressingly timely.

This movie is progressive intentionally, but not formally, and the difference between its creators’ themes and consideration is unfortunately glaring.

It traffics in too many false frights, leans heavily on lapses in logic and loses its way when super-naturalism kicks in.
