	Author	Review
United States	David Rooney The Hollywood Reporter	"There's nothing here that comes close to (...) Anvari's first feature (...) But the director nonetheless remains a skilled craftsman, subtly tapping into the flavorful history of New Orleans as a hub of dark magic"	NEU
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"There are all the usual tiresome jumpscares, and the result is jarringly unsuccessful and wrong (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	Amy Nicholson Variety	"[It] isn’t as coherent as 'Under the Shadow' (...) Instead, Anvari has set out to make a mood piece that succeeds in scaring the audience senseless (...) Hammer is his own special effect."	NEU
United States	Jason Bailey The Playlist	"It’s hard to figure out exactly what movie Anvari was trying to make (...) It’s kind of a bummer"	NEG
United States	David Ehrlich IndieWire	"The most interesting scene is the one in which Hammer just sits at his laptop and Googles some generic occult nonsense — there’s a chance he might stumble across the plot of a better film. He doesn’t. Some wounds never heal."	NEG
United States	Rafael Motamayor Bloody Disgusting	"[It] will definitely gross you out, but there isn’t enough meat in these bones to keep your interest through the millionth sight of a cockroach or jump scare at the sound of an incoming text (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 5)"	NEG
