Lovely review of #TheDamnedMovie (and NOSFERATWO) from @totalcultzone.bsky.social! Both are available to buy or rent but obviously Robert Eggers doesn’t need that sweet sweet cash the way I do! open.spotify.com/episode/6Uvk...

Page from the Irish Examiner: “ The Damned: Cork producer Conor Barry on making his dark thriller in Iceland It wasn't easy to make a film in the cold, short winter days, but the Bishopstown man and his crew persevered, writes Esther McCarthy

THOUGHT CATALOG headline:- “You Probably Haven't Seen The Best Horror Movie Of 2025 So Far And that's a damned shame.”
Picture of Odessa Young in The Damned.
Apple pre-order page of THE DAMNED, 90% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes
“You Probably Haven’t Seen The Best Horror Movie of 2025 So Far” is pretty rich considering it’s still January, BUT I LIKE RICH!!! If you missed #TheDamnedMovie in a cinema near you, it’s on VOD in the US and pre-order in the UK and Ireland!

Official poster for the movie THE DAMNED
A quiet ghost story for a cold winter evening. Catch it in theaters as a nice immersive break from real world horrors.
Carpenter’s THE FOG vibes without any of the fun - and I mean that as a compliment! #horror #theDamnedmovie

The guys on ‘Kvikmyndapod: An Icelandic Cinema Podcast’ did a deep dive into #TheDamnedMovie that’s very interesting. Heavy spoilers from about halfway through, so be warned!

Still from THE DAMNED, a woman stands in a snowy graveyard at the edge of a desolate Icelandic fjord
Still from the Damned: Joe Cole faces Odessa Young in a candlelit cabin interior, wearing mid 19th century fisherman’s clothing
Still from the damned: Odessa Young (as Eva) stares off into the icy fjord in horror; in bg, various fisherman (and Siobhan Finneran) stand out of focus.
RT score for the damned is at 91% right now
As of tomorrow, there’s no guarantee #TheDamnedMovie will be playing in an Irish/UK cinema near you and I - obviously, COMPLETELY unbiased - would urge you to see it on a very big screen while you can!

Indiewire headline: "The Damned' Review: Icelandic Fisherman Reckon with Their Sins in a Glacially Cold Morality Play Odessa Young gives an excellent performance in Thordur Palsson's folklore-influenced exploration of the ways that our choices follow us forever. BY CHRISTIAN ZILKO
Heading from Eye for Film: THE DAMNED 4 1/2 stars - "A deep understand of the period and cultural context gives it a weight of authenticity."
Excerpt from Roger Ebert.com “the first movies of any given year are usually among the worst. Not this one. It's a keeper, so treat yourself to a scary New Year's celebration.”
#TheDamnedMovie opens in Irish and UK cinemas today! Do you need another reason to see it other than the writer is a dish*?
See below! You don’t know where it’s showing? Read on!

I doodled a very rough idea during a hasty Zoom call with the director and producers on-set in Iceland, me at a warm desk in Madrid) while we tried to rework a key sequence in the second act of #TheDamnedMovie
The image on the laptop is one of the rushes shot a few days later. THE MAGIC OF CINEMA!

Saw THE DAMNED yesterday. Nothing earth-shattering and the ending wasn't quite what I hoped for but it is a cool little ghost story with tons of atmosphere. Definitely recommend.😎👍

![You just touched on this, but I wanted to ask you about the visual grammar of the film. It's some of the best cinematography that I've seen all year. It's not showy, but it's just so confident. How did you and the cinematographer [Eli Arenson] develop the visual language of the film?
I first saw Eli's work when he shot A24's Lamb, which was fantastic. He likes to paint a picture.
He wants to show you a photograph, and I love to move the camera-a bit of Spielberg. I love to feel movement, but obviously, it has to be motivated.
So it was constantly us asking, "Are we still in this moment? Are we moving?" It always came down to what Eva was doing. Is Eva still, or is she moving? How is she feeling in the scene? That also affected the lighting.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:bdc74rkdduobzf4ka6boduwq/bafkreihsm5pwjpz7lhfznqany66hllg7h4iszwacxaf5v2inl36vkpfacq)
