Critics Consensus

It isn't without its share of clichés, but Afflicted proves there's still life in the found-footage horror genre.

There's life yet in the found-footage horror genre.

2/4

"Afflicted" is as emotionally involving as a really accomplished special-effects sizzle reel.

Runs smack into a number of generic clichs, from the back-and-forth bickering about how to deal with the situation to a lazy underlying misogyny.

2.5/5

An entertaining genre film, presenting a handful of scenes to satisfy the gore mongers as well as those seeking a little substance.

Although "Afflicted" is light on truly frightening moments, it compensates with plenty of personality and chill.

There's no beauty or inspiration in the film's shooting style, and most importantly, no terror. If this is "ingenious" horror filmmaking, as the programme note suggests, get me off this planet.

This is the best found footage movie I’ve ever seen. Having the vampire transformation as the main plot and watching the progression through the stages was a really cool idea, and the twist genuinely surprised me. I honestly wish someone would turn this into a TV miniseries — kind of like Dexter, but with vampires who only kill bad people. Bravo to these brilliant Canadian actor-writers. I want more like this!

Pretty great found footage horror. It’s like Chronicle meets P.A. The Marked Ones and a vampire flick. Really fun

Fun little twist on the found footage genre that goes quite off the rails in a good, yet weird way.

Vampires are OK but you add that first person video style? Man, that's way too much pressure for any fan to tolerate both of these. Yeah, it's a bit cheezy - I guess they liked it that way? Not not the worst thing I've seen.... It had some good moments, mostly just what you would expect moments. RECOMMENDATION: If you can find/watch for free, I'd recommend. Otherwise; don't pay money for it.

If you are a fun of the found-footage genre, you should watch this one as well. The plot is pretty straight-forward , nothing special but the directing of the film is pretty good and realistic. I just believe that it could be a lot better plot wise.
