The Black Mass is a brutal and uncomfortable watch, yet serves as a stark reminder that Ted Bundy was an evil killer who deserves no glorification or glamorisation. Go to Full Review Michael Talbot-Haynes Film Threat 04/24/2024

The audience is made to spend a day in the presence of a renowned serial killer in Devanny Pinn’s cold and confrontational take on one of history’s most notorious men. Go to Full Review Joel Harley Starburst 10/30/2023
4/5
If its big ‘reveal’ leaves an unfortunate taste in the mouth, then that’s because, up until then, The Black Mass felt better than that. An atypical true crime biopic; heartfelt, angry, and uninterested in using its killer’s name for cheap shock value. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Stefan R Mar 29 ..... Skip this one. Poorly done in every way. Very slow and not the least bit compelling. All of the characters in this piece lack any semblance of personality or charisma. If you don't know who Ted Bundy is at all, this thing is done like a poorly done home movie that just merely follows some guy around. See more Julie R 10/13/2024 Very slow, annoying cinematography and very poor acting. Give it a miss. See more Stuart B 04/08/2024 Devanny Pinn has crafted a genuinely creepy, tense, pot boiler of a film which also looks and feels like you are in 1978. With the use of old style transitions, and a great period musical soundtrack by Fernando Perdomo it helps the audience stay grounded in the late 70s and delivers a film that is different to most films in this true crime genre and it works all the better for it. If i describe the film as slow burn, then some might take that as a negative, and its certainly not. What Devanny Pinn does is build up the pressure, and the atmosphere Recommended movie! See more michael k 03/27/2024 Terrible acting, very low budget. Too cringy to even finish. Made it about 20 minutes in before my wife and I turned it off. See more Read all reviews
