Van den Brink’s sense of melancholy imbues his film with deep gloom. ” …not really terrifying for the experienced viewer, but there are more elements that make a good ghost story. Moreover, there is humor: the jenever jug is always on the table has enormous crossover potential, it could also charm non-horror fans. For motherhood, intergenerational trauma and transmission. ” …a psychological drama, in which the supernatural is a metaphor for everyday fears. And in Harmsen, he’s cast someone well-suited to let us see Betriek’s lighter moments…” 2.5/4 Movie Nation But van den Brink and his crew bathe this beast in a gorgeous murky gloom that sets the tone. “ Moloch has a fairly conventional plot with story beats and a resolution that will have the ring of familiarity to anybody who’s ever seen a horror film based on a folk tale. Within the genre, Moloch is a fine film to watch, but unfortunately, one that will not stay with you for a long time due to the lack of a unique and individual character.” 6.5/10 De Film Recensent
The whole is sufficiently exciting, but it never really gets scary for a moment. The film heads towards the denouement without any surprises.
