Bartok's sparse horror has a spooky central conceit, and just about overcomes its budgetary bumps, while Macdonald excels as the innocent.June 19, 2017
The actual spooky stuff provides a few jumps, the performances are good but overall the story is too thin, and that dilutes the impact.June 16, 2017
A cheerfully derivative exercise in jump scares, dark shadows and low-budget-driven aesthetics.July 06, 2017
The motive just isn't gripping enough.June 15, 2017
Sinister goings-on in a run-down Irish hospital deliver the scares in this solid if unsurprising horror.June 08, 2017
An ordinary, if effective horror picture, is predictable fare with two big ticks to its benefit: a penchant for creep-out scares involving its looming spectre; and a committed, sympathetic performance from Macdonald.June 08, 2017
Altogether it's a simple, but relatively satisfying, horror film.June 29, 2017
Unlike The Babadook or Under the Shadow, Nails fails to satisfactorily link its titular monster and its psychological dimension.June 14, 2017
Maybe I'm just slow. Or maybe there's gonna be a sequel, perhaps also funded by The Irish Film Board. Nails just wasn't my kind of film.
