This movie was terrible. The entire time I kept waiting for "It" to appear, in "it comes at night" the ending left no questions answered. Was a total waste of 1 hour and 37 minutes of my life! I want that part of my life back as well as my money. Don't waste your time, money and life on this movie like I did. #2thumbsdown

THIS IS NOT A SCARY MOVIE. There are scenes (like 4) that are a little frightening, but overall it's a DRAMA. I have no idea why they marketed the movie as scary. I hate false advertising.

Taut, smart, intense and genuinely scary, Trey Edward Shults’s It Comes at Night fulfills the promise, and then some, of the filmmaker’s 2015 debut feature, “Krisha.”

There’s just one big problem here: It Comes at Night is about as enjoyable for the audience as it is for the people in the movie. On both sides of the screen, misery reigns.

The details in this post-apocalyptic chamber drama — flat-out horror this is not — are spare, an initially refreshing decision that ultimately results in a rather empty, half-formed narrative.
