Darkly funny and deeply twisted, 13 Sins grabs you from its startling opening sequence and doesn’t let go.

Creepy enough to get the job done, but not sufficiently extreme to fulfill the initial setup.

This is what someone would make if Saw and Chess were together. That's what 13 Sins is. The movie starts out slow and ends slow as well. But the entertaining plot and the strong performances make it more than just a bargain theatre horror porn. When I mean this movie is crazy, it's super crazy. Plot twists, direction and story is done really well. This one really is much more than its aiming for. Providing great action scenes, awesome plot twists and a bloody 70s game show style- 13 Sins is one of the best VOD movies of the year, it's scary, twisted and bloody fun.

Some good variation on a familiar theme, as well as some solid acting make this an enjoyable experience. I thought it was well written, however the distinct lack of solid conclusion let down what was otherwise a solid entry in the thriller/horror genre. As other's have said, it appears to have been left open for sequels, when a sequel really isn't needed. Despite this, I still thoroughly enjoyed it.

Daniel Stamm's film is solidly helmed, if expectedly over-reliant on unnecessarily grisly comeuppances that leave nothing to the imagination.

When the fly trapped in the spider's web is as clueless and selfish as the sap played by Mark Webber in 13 Sins, it's hard to muster much sympathy.

This ultimately isn’t a film about human fallibility, but about high-concept grotesquerie for its own sake.

What you have here is a good Thriller come Horror movie with strong acting and decent direction. Though the story is a slightly familiar one there are enough changes to give it a fresh feel. There are many films of this ilk so cliches are included, though the way they are handled makes them less discernible. Worth a watch.

Honestly I have seen films much worse within the genre than this one, although it is clear that it is not a film supported by a large studio, nor that it has famous names, it's simple but enjoyable.

Positives: The performances are solid, early parts kept my interest Negatives: The 2nd half, a ridiculous script, lost interest Overview: The concept is interesting similar to David Fincher's The Game or Saw, unfortunately this falls way short of both. Grade: D+

A silly, dumb pile of garbage. The movie isn't clever enough and becomes even more unrealistic and corny as time goes by. It wasn't thrilling or scary.
