"Photographs becomes overly confusing at times, and the villain lacks backstory and a concrete reason for their actions. That said, I still enjoyed it for the most part - especially the chaotic ending." - Ted Milo, Film Journal International





"Convoluted and not particularly scary or thrilling, Photographs is most likely only going to appeal to genre enthusiasts. I will say that some of the casting is strong, but they aren't given anything special to do." - Josh Manning, NY Daily News




"The over-abundance of characters takes focus away from the important players repeatedly and the villains leave a lot to be desired. Not even a strong lead performance from Emma Roberts can make up for those short-comings." - Dave Manning, The Ridgefield Press





Rated R for graphic bloody violence, language and some sexual content
