Critics Consensus: A frightening feature debut from Jacob Chase, Come Play makes up for its uneven tone by adding real depth to its jarring scares.

Reviews

The Digital Fix

Emma-Jane Betts

Unlike the films it tries to draw upon, Come Play lacks the deep world-building and characterisation it needs to keep viewers intrigued.

Even though he cannot speak, Oliver is exceptionally clever, fun, and brave, something I believe most of today's society doesn't think autistic kids can be.

Nightmare on Film Street

Paul Lê

Seeing as the movie is all about the ups and downs of family life, Come Play is made with parents and children in mind. It's not exactly a fangless gateway horror, though, since a few sequences boast imagery far too intense for the younger crowd.

I’m happy to report that the movie does have its decent share of good scares and creepy moments. Unfortunately, they’re practically equaled by the amount of goofy moments and dubious dialogue.

The ending was disappointing and predictable in the most annoying way, but the monster Larry is worthy of inclusion into beloved and terrifying horror characters.
