Reviews
Clinger received a mixed response from critics and audiences alike. On IMDb, it holds a rating of 4.8/10, reflecting a lukewarm reception. Some reviewers praised the film's humor and originality for blending horror and comedy in an unconventional way. For example, a handful of niche horror review sites appreciated its campy tone and Vincent Martella's charismatic performance. However, mainstream critics often cited issues with pacing and a sometimes uneven tone. Common criticisms included a lack of genuine scares and an inconsistent script. Rotten Tomatoes does not have a full critics' score for the film, indicating limited mainstream critical coverage, though audience scores suggest divided opinions. Overall, fans of cult horror-comedies may find Clinger an entertaining, if flawed, watch, while others might be put off by its niche style and campy execution.
