A psychological horror shunned as part of a failed experiment goes it alone on streaming

Prime Video’s Welcome to the Blumhouse experiment sounded a lot better in practice than it proved to be in execution, with the horror hit factory giving up-and-coming filmmakers the chance to showcase their skills as part of a multi-film collection on a major streaming service.

Releasing two at a time one week apart in 2020 and 2021, the short-lived expansion of the Blumhouse brand did give genre fans eight new features to occupy their hours, but the results were largely unspectacular. Emmanuel Osei-Kuffour Jr.’s ended up as the best-reviewed of the bunch thanks to a 71 percent Rotten Tomatoes score, leaving Zu Quirke’s Nocturne somewhere in the middle.
