It’s like a Terrence Malick film except every five minutes someone fangoriously butchers a donkey while a foley artist crushes a grapefruit directly onto their microphone.
Jake CorneliusAs close to a Terrence Malick horror film as we may ever get, this lyrical poem about identity, alienation, and connection is a moving, beautiful fairy tale for grownups. Wonderful performances, beautiful cinematography and a phenomenal concept make this a must-watch for…
Mike FlanaganJan 22, 2022You Won’t Be Alone is a wondrous meditation on life and humanity. Gorgeously tranquil cinematography and performances that capture earnestly every human experience and emotion. A story told primarily through poignant, internal dialogue. Slow pace drags but the journey is…

I laughed, I cried, I died a little inside. What a magical adventure horror, that says so much with so little dialogue.
Emma WolfeApr 26, 2022“It’s a burning, breaking thing. This world.” The bittersweet human condition. A shapeshifting Freddy Krueger-esque [im not kidding] witch marks a newborn to be her own when she turns 16. The now feral teen is mute and lives isolated in a cavern in protection from the…
c h r i sApr 24, 2022A beautiful, melancholy meditation on life and humanity, one of those movies you really need to be in the right mood for. Somewhere between folk horror and a dark fairytale, You Won’t Be Alone wants you to think about how beautiful life can be, but also how cruel. Humans…

How we even manage to survive daily in a world full of cruelty, dishonesty, indifference, and suffering is a painful miracle.
RyanJul 8, 2022A very different horror film in which horror is mostly the cruelty of the world. Beautiful and haunting more than haunted, this was nothing like I expected it to be although I’m not sure I really had any expectations going in. A witch escapes her witch guardian(?) in order…

- Whoppa Birthday likedYou Won't Be Alone
Gorgeous yet bleak and relatively hard to follow. Beautiful soundtrack. An hour and forty-nine minutes but feels like a lifetime. Violent and disturbing peppered with light amounts of satisfaction. Hard to recommend but hard not to appreciate. Definitely a piece of art.
Stefan likedYou Won't Be AloneA beautifully shot, unique story with an excellent soundtrack. It probably shouldn’t be labeled as a horror movie; it incorporated horror elements with folklore but aside from a pervading uneasiness there was nothing scary about the movie
𝓔. lovedYou Won't Be AloneHow much can be said without words… Unhurried, rich scenes that you absorb with multiple senses, you don’t just watch them, you feel them. This film stays with you. Long after it ends, it lingers in your mind, refusing to be forgotten. Unforgettable beautiful cinematic journey..
- Hugo lovedYou Won't Be Alone
I truly love how this movie was filmed, it felt ardent. Watching this movie felt off, but with a strong sense of emotion and direction, to one’s path. We follow the eyes of immaturity, and its consequences with the perspectives of human experience, during its time.
Aaron Hajduk likedYou Won't Be AloneFolk Horror Fall continues… Beautifully filmed. It is bleak, harsh, but with moments of… joy? Maybe not joy, maybe it’s just less bleak & harsh and therefore that feels uplifting in contrast? It’s a movie that requires thought. You have to process this.
Samantha lovedYou Won't Be Alonesimplistic, but that is what makes it beautiful. it is not for everyone like many films but when it is, it tugs at your heart and your mind.

Beating with a wild and restless energy, the film’s fearsome but ferociously beautiful heart marks the emergence of a rare and remarkable talent.

You Won’t Be Alone, the ravishing, wildly original first feature from Goran Stolevski, moves so hypnotically between dream and nightmare, horror and fairy tale that, once bound by its spell, you won’t want to be freed.

It is startling, and sometimes disturbing, but hits a place that is intensely human — bittersweet and bloody and beautiful at once, and unlike anything you’ve ever seen.
