Eye for Film
"Part investigative thriller, part chilling horror film, Disappear Completely is brilliantly directed."
AIPT
"Henaine's movie is a relatively grounded one that is unafraid to work in mysticism and tradition. The entire runtime is spent subverting expectations. The final moments are the culmination of a powerful tale of regret and power."
Father Son Holy Gore
"Disappear Completely is an unnerving supernatural horror story that brings the morality of our everyday world into question when it comes to the pop culture obsession with true crime."
THN
"A fusion of Nightcrawler with witch doctors, Disappear Completely straddles both the old and new world."
Disappear Completely becomes available to stream on Netflix in the UK on April 12.
