Mixed reviews for new horror film Claypice

In depth

The new film "Claypice" from DC, directed by James Watkins, presents a body horror story about a young actor who loses his face and entrusts his body to experimental technology. According to N12, the film pays homage to David Cronenberg's "The Fly" and features an awful body horror creation alongside a tragic, heartbreaking story.

According to Ynet, the film includes graphic gore and powerful moments and a successful lead performance, but its drama does not manage to deepen the horror. Israel Hayom described the film as a confusing and disgusting experience, and noted that watching it is not enjoyable in any way. According to Ice, the film stands on its own without the familiar superheroes, and gave it a rating of 4 stars.
