IslandGuru Who payed the critics

RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

GarnettTeenage The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Lightman42 'The Tower' is a unique merging of art, gore, zombies, and science fiction strung together to make one of the most original horror films to come out of Detroit since Sam Raimi's 'Evil Dead'. There are influences of Raimi's possessed 'deadites', Romero's classic zombies and gore- along with high concept science fiction and macabre elements that reminded me of Phantasm, House, and Suspiria.There's a lot of atmosphere in this film, helping to keep you in a dreadful state of mind. You are traveling along with Lucy and a confused survivor in a world that seems separated from reality- always trying to unravel the mystery of the Tower. It's a movie for those who like to be lost in a cinematic nightmare. The music is cool, and the makeup effects are awesome.There's a strong payoff in the end as it dives deeper into a sci-fi / fantasy realm than most films of the horror genre do these days. I think that's my favorite thing about the film.I loved 'The Tower'. It's a film that defies genre expectations, and worthy of it's growing cult following.
