Review Quotes

"Revival's brilliance lies in how it focuses just as much on the emotional drama surrounding the revivals as in the effective horror set pieces it creates."-- "Paste Magazine"

"Brings to mind the Coen Brothers' modern crime noir Fargo."-- "Mental Floss"

"Seeley (Witchblade, Bloodstrike) and Norton (Battlepug) craft moods and story themes equally inspired by Elmore Leonard prose and Coen brothers small-town crime flicks."

-- "USA Today"
