Kat Hughes THN 03/15/2025
3/5
The gore and monster effects are remarkably impressive for such a low budget, the dialogue and plot however are not. A mixed bag of hit and miss, Lair has a lot of good ideas, it just tries to tell them all at once. Go to Full Review

Lair succeeds with its female-led possession story but fails with the flat adjacent flat subplot. Go to Full Review

C-
There are some passable haunted-house scares, but the characters behave so nonsensically that they're impossible to care about. Go to Full Review
Carla Hay Culture Mix 01/17/2022
Lair is a disjointed mess of a horror film that takes too long to get to anything that could be described as 'scary' ... Instead of ramping up the suspense, the movie struggles to hold viewer interest because it gets sidetracked with dull scenes. Go to Full Review

Is LAIR a groundbreaking work of filmic art? No. Is it a decent choice to cue up when you want to relax and watch some viscera fly in a movie that doesn't ask too much of your brain? Sure. Go to Full Review

And that's a problem with Lair - nothing happens. The title doesn't even fit. Nothing possession or ghosts, other than terrible people who don't know how to communicate. Go to Full Review

Matthew M @RT40599958 09/10/2024 Lair is a tense and creepy thriller that kept me hooked the whole time. Great twists, great acting, and a unique storyline made it a fun watch. Definitely worth checking out if you're into supernatural horror! See more Pia B @RT39384588 09/10/2024 Crow crafts a chilling narrative that combines psychological tension with visceral scares. The film's dark, immersive visuals and unsettling score create a persistent sense of dread. Lair stands out for its inventive approach to the genre, delivering both original storytelling and relentless suspense. Gripping performances from all cast, Lair is a must-watch for horror enthusiasts. See more Alicia N @RT33608692 09/02/2024 A promising film from this debut director! He skilfully makes this low budget indie look slick and professional. See more Katy M @RT20179619 09/01/2024 I loved the fact that the movie centred around the story of the four female protagonists and the fact that it was set in London was a bonus. It feels good to support British independent films. Lair is beautifully shot, directed and acted and there are some excellent jump scares and twists and turns that keep you on the edge of your seat. A must watch! See more Audience M @RT55318755 08/19/2024 Really enjoyed watching this creepy story unfold, interesting characters, superb tense atmosphere, beautifully shot & some super scary moments! See more Shelley A @RT41635401 08/19/2024 I love independent filmmakers who put their heart and soul into good story-telling when financial resources are limited. Lair has great characters, very good scares, looks exceedingly cinematic (watch it on the biggest screen you can) and has a studio level score. Very very film. See more Read all reviews
