Critic Reviews:
...The 8th Night is a solidly-made, slow-burn chiller that gets a lot of mileage out of ancient prophecies and ghosts traveling in the margins.
– Decider
...The 8th Night doesn’t quite end with the bang it should. Nevertheless, this is still an enjoyable occult thriller with solid characters and a mostly moody atmosphere and should sate fans of serious horror.
Whilst it did put in the work in its closing half, The 8th Night will be a film beyond redemption for the less patient viewers. The potential was there for it to be much better than it was, but by stringing out the storyline with repetition and a handful of unnecessary threads, it failed in achieving this.
