The Cane Field Killings is a drama that sears itself into your consciousness. It does without the occasional element of bleak ironic humour to break the tensions, of the kind you get in British or American crime series. It’s remorseless and unceasing, just like a serial killer in fact. [Reyka was released as The Cane Field Killings in the UK]

A disappointingly ordinary police procedural, flirting with big ideas around post-apartheid identity before reverting to type – as if two jealous writers were wrestling over the script between takes. [Reyka was released as The Cane Field Killings in the UK]
