See for Me works. It’s an entertaining little thriller featuring two strong lead performances and chilling sequences overflowing in suspense.

“See for Me” wastes no frame in its brisk 92 minute running time, it’s a tightly-wound thriller propelled by enough turns that you won’t want to miss a beat.

The two women and their unusual partnership are enough to make See For Me an agreeable evening’s diversion, good for a few shocks and surprises.

This is a great idea used to make an insanely pedestrian thriller.

Before long, anyone who’s seen far too many thrillers will begin composing a mental list of missed opportunities.

TOP CRITIC
A movie that never quite manages to live up to its intriguing concept, thanks mostly to a couple of key creative decisions that undercut any chance for real emotional involvement.

See for Me is a great thriller taking place in a beautiful remote house that shows what can be done in the dark, with a blind lead, using technology the right way.
April 6, 2022 | Rating: 4/5
Emilie Black
Cinema Crazed
A lean and taunt thriller that succeeds primarily because of the well laid geography of the house and newcomer Skyler Davenport’s committed performance. The film just needs a stronger third act to really sell it.

Joe Lipsett
Horror Queers Podcast
Watchable late-night fare that, yes, looks perhaps too familiar to the movies that inspired it but remains a worthwhile entertainment nonetheless.
