Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Part Carrie, part Frankenstein and still shlockier bits and pieces, May isn't seamless. But boy is it hard to avert one's eyes from this creature ready-made for the midnight-movie circuit.
A bizarre (and sometimes repulsive) exercise that's a little too willing to swoon in its own weird embrace.
Unfolds with the creepy elegance and carefully calibrated precision of a Dario Argento horror film.
Exactly the kind of unexpected delight one hopes for every time the lights go down.
