Audience Reviews

Tom L Interesting use of Jewish folklore and culture to tell a story of demon possession and a deal with an evil entity. Despite a decent cast and good atmosphere and setting, the film doesn’t escape many of the cliches of demon possession stories that are tired at this point. The monster is typical CGI fare and we see too much of it for it to be terrifying. At least there’s no cloying happy ending. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/13/24 Full Review Ashley P The Offering strikes the perfect balance between a compelling story and spine-tingling scares. Rooted in Jewish folklore, it brings something fresh to horror while delivering all the tension and eerie vibes you want from the genre. The family drama feels real, adding emotional weight to the supernatural terror.The pacing is just right, with a natural flow that keeps you hooked without rushing the chills. The demon Abyzou is creepy and unique, and the mix of cultural detail and atmospheric dread makes the whole experience unforgettable. If you're into horror with depth and scares, The Offering is a must-watch! Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/02/24 Full Review xFiera O This movie started out so promising, and then just became dry and started falling short on every part. Also… elevator scene wise? Can we stop making women look like idiots just to draw out a scene? It’s a dated practice, and annoying. She knew immediately to close the gate on the way down, she isn’t going to forget for that long on the way back up, even with panic setting in… maybe for a brief second, but not for that long. Anyways… personally didn’t like this. Found it to be a waste of time, and had a hard time sitting through the entirety of the film. Ending was on par with the rest of the film. Realized I was getting up and pausing every 20 minutes and had to force myself to finish it (goal is to finish all Hulu horror movies by the end of 2024). Hard pass. Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 11/14/24 Full Review Jose Raul B This movie reminded me a lot of The Autopsy of Jane Doe. Not bad, but i really felt like I was watching some movie twice. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/27/24 Full Review Dave G Ok acting with just a couple of jump scares and draped in some Jewish tradition or folklore that was somewhat beyond me. As someone who is usually all for a horror involving the supernatural I felt that the movie got in its own way due to the plot. Ghosts/demons, a morgue, it's usually enough but not this time. Rated 1.5/5 Stars • Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/09/24 Full Review Lorena S It was a waste of my time. I didn't like the endings and the carather weren't really developed. Skip it.
