What the Critics Say About "Amelia's Children"
- "Amelia's Children is a horror film that has moments of unintentional humor, but is ultimately dull rather than some sort of clever dark comedy." - Chase Hutchinson, Collider
- "A hilariously awful collision of soap opera and horror movie, Amelia's Children teeters so precariously on the cliff top of comedy that one wishes the director, Gabriel Abrantes, had dared to kick it over the edge." - Jeannette Catsoulis, The New York Times
- "You can almost feel the director coming alive behind the camera whenever Amelia's Children shifts gears from a gothic horror story to a giallo-inflected satire about the European aristocracy's penchant for self-preservation at any cost." - David Ehrlich, IndieWire
