Little Bites

There is an attempt to comment on the sacrifices that moms make, but it gets squelched by its own unevenness.

it’s so disheartening to watch someone give their all to a movie that doesn’t know what to do with her character or performance.

By the third act, the film may falter under the weight of its metaphors, but despite flaws in the script, its compelling performances and effective creature design are enough for a tasty little horror trifle.

There's a lot of promise here, but it doesn't all pay off, resulting in a decent film that stops short of being a great exercise in supernatural terror.

While on its surface, this is a decent vampire horror, what’s contained inside is brilliantly unique with indelible messaging and immense heart. Don’t approach this as a traditional horror, but instead, expect a purposeful and resonant tale.

What makes Little Bites more intriguing is its exploration of generational trauma, sacrifice, and the everyday struggles of women. While it may initially seem simplistic, this dark and engaging film leaves viewers with plenty to ponder.

The screenplay veers and changes its intentions so many times that the whole movie leaves us ... [with] nothing but questions.

This is easily one of the most satisfying fright flicks I’ve seen this year.

The film doesn’t have many surprises, but it does have nuance, mood, a generous creep factor, and a devastating lead performance from Fox.

Little Bites is a suffocating descent into a monstrous abusive relationship.
