The bodily autonomy theme, which Veron credits to co-writer Alanah Pearce, is evident. But underneath there’s also some very relevant commentary here on how older generations suck the life out of younger ones for their own selfish benefit.

What starts out feeling like a 'Barbarian' riff becomes something very different after the twist, but Vernon never quite has a confident grip on the story he’s trying to tell. Go to Full Review Mary Beth McAndrews Dread Central Oct 1, 2026

While Godmother ultimately treads familiar ground, the story is full of enough twists and turns (plus some stellar performances) to surprise any horror fan. Go to Full Review Brandon Wainerdi Fangoria Sep 28, 2026
Godmother had enough twists and turns throughout its runtime to make it legitimately exciting to watch. Go to Full Review Joe Friar Fort Worth Report Sep 25, 2026
Paige Evans shines in the final act as her character becomes the story’s VIP as the film ventures into 70s horror territory. Expect a nice jolt during the finale. Go to Full Review Samantha McLaren Horror Press Sep 25, 2026
