“The actors play it big and bold in a visually striking, black and white horror show.” – Richard Roeper, Chicago Sun-Times
“The visceral, disgusting, and irrefutably maddening theatrics of The Lighthouse are entrancing enough to have viewers happily giving themselves over to a beckoning siren by film’s end.” – Cody Corrall, Chicago Reader
“The Lighthouse works because of the strength of the actors’ performances, the power of their interaction, and the aura of incipient dread that saturates everything.” – James Berardinellim ReelViews
“Beautifully filmed and framed in black and white, and Dafoe is wild and wildly entertaining in a role that feels written to match his every aspect.” – Matthew Lickona, San Diego Reader
“Pattinson is superb but it’s Dafoe who emerges as a giant with a towering, unforgettable performance.” – Adam Graham, Detroit News
The Guild Cinema is located at 3405 Central Ave NE in the Nob Hill area.
