"...a spooky beast of a short which combines quieter drama with a rapid pace to brilliant effect. It channels all the right genre tropes and its cinematic influences mix with its humid atmosphere ensuring plenty of unknown fear and frights. By its conclusion, excited audiences will definitely be soaked by The River’s supernatural and swampy scares."

Midlands Movies (Review)
"This definitely feels like the production company’s slickest and most adventurous short to date, given its glossy production value and sprawling locations plus filming on water, which is never straight forward. It leans on the tropes of aquatic horror whilst also paying homage to films such as Creepshow 2 and the slashers of the 80s."

Bloody Flicks (Review)
"Through the use of building tension in a normally beautiful, quiet, mundane location, The River crafts a great short horror and avoids the pitfall of an over-reliance on jump scares."
