Sorry About the Demon | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Noel Murray Los Angeles Times There’s a broad tone to the jokes and performances that skews corny. But the central comic premise is a hoot; and the movie has an unexpectedly philosophical dimension. Jan 20, 2023 Full Review Sorry About the Demon | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Ygraine Hackett-Cantabrana The Geek Show (UK) Playing to its strength of slapstick style qualities, it manages to avoid veering into the cringy, instead being a delightfully straightforward and thoroughly entertaining story Jul 9, 2024 Full Review Sorry About the Demon | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Tyler Doupe Dread Central This horror comedy drags in the middle and skimps on scares. But the humor and a likable lead make it worth a look. Rated: 3/5 Feb 21, 2023 Full Review Sorry About the Demon | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Erik Childress Movie Madness Podcast There's something lovely about Emily Hagins' style of humor that includes of wisp of childlike practicality in the arrested development of her adult characters and her latest bridges that comic horror gateway for all ages. Rated: 3/4 Feb 16, 2023 Full Review Sorry About the Demon | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Lori C. Ready Steady Cut There’s very little horror to a lot of comedy, and even the supposedly spooky parts fail at being scary. But if you’re willing to forgo the horror and enjoy a campy little flick with ghosts and demons, this is the film for you. Rated: 3/5 Feb 9, 2023 Full Review Sorry About the Demon | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Noah Berlatsky Splice Today This is a film that lacks direction and conviction—though not in a bad way. It slouches towards hell with such demonic inadequacy that it’s hard to not be charmed. Feb 1, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

Adam B Sorry About the Demon is a light comedy set within a dark concept. Will, the protagonist and his band of friends are likable enough to carry the movie through a bunch of flat jokes and one dimensional conflicts. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/16/23 Full Review Whit C This was a fun film! The lead character was so charming, the premise hilarious. It was a fun watch. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/26/23 Full Review Mick D This film is a lot of fun and rarely scary. It's a cross between Evil Dead and CBS's Ghosts. Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/30/23 Full Review Hugo S Will moves to a new home after being dumped by his neglected girlfriend. The new place is infested with a demon who demands a new vessel. And so the torment begins! This comedy/horror movie falls short of laughs and jump scares are almost inexistent. Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/18/23 Full Review brad p This horror comedy drags in the middle and skimps on scares. But the humor and a likable lead make it worth a look. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Miranda T Definitely lands somewhere between a C- and B+ for comedy horror. Funny and entertaining, but strangely stupid in a satisfying way. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews
