Butterfly Kisses Reviews
Jason Shawhan Nashville Scene
Butterfly Kisses is a great tool for teaching about genre mechanics, and also about balancing your insights with properly calibrated scares.
Full Review | Sep 9, 2021
Chris Stuckmann ChrisStuckmann.com
It's a fascinating look at how a filmmaker can become so obsessed with something, it destroys his life.

Michelle Swope Nightmarish Conjurings
Butterfly Kisses feels like a familiar story, but it is told in such a disturbingly unique way that it is definitely worth checking out.

Nick Rocco Scalia Film Threat
As thoughtful and original as Butterfly Kisses is, it's fair to question who, exactly, the film is really for. It's the kind of thing that's bound to play like gangbusters at film festivals...
Full Review | Original Score: 7.5/10 | Jan 8, 2019
Martin Unsworth Starburst
If you think the subgenre is done and finished, Butterfly Kisses might change your mind as it's head and shoulders above the rest.
