"Solvent is a great, challenging film; I’ve honestly never seen anything like it. The Blu-ray edition is worth it for the excellent location featurette alone, full of great production stories. A singular, unsettling film, and a strong edition for anyone drawn to truly unusual cinema."
"Solvent is a moody, low-budget thriller that leans into atmosphere and slow-building tension. The film takes its time, creating a sense of unease through minimalism and a grounded, almost experimental style. It’s not a traditional narrative, but if you’re into indie films that prioritize mood and tone, there’s something quietly compelling here."
"This goes into some real bizarre territory. I'm going to have to watch it again to see how I feel about it."
"I have no idea what any of this meant, but it’s hypnotic and interesting if not altogether cogent."
"Grabed the slipcover version first day glad I did sold out fast. Worth the buy"
"Great transfer and take on the found footage genre. Slipcover is ok and extras are minimal."
"This film actually terrified me. Jon Gries does such a great job in the lead. If you like a good haunted house movie grab this bad boy. A very pleasant surprise."
"Nice and weird"
"This is one hell of a horror movie. I honestly don’t know what I just watched, but I loved it. I’d highly recommend this film for people that are into out of the box horror movies. Packaging and presentation are excellent!"
"This fever dream of a found footage movie is something I didn’t expect. With the initial set up of the usual team investigating: I was thinking it would turn into some usual haunted house or monster type affair. But the frenetic editing and set up became something much more cerebral. The content about Austria’s sordid WW2 history bleeding into modern times is certainly a statement in itself. It’s hard to categorize this movie. On one hand, it’s filled with crazy dream imagery mixed with historical footage and narration. Another is this insane Lovecraftian dread like presentation mixed with some off brand humor and body horror bits. This is certainly a love it or hate it affair. I think it will hit better with further repeat viewings. Nice slipcover art and transfer."
