JP Fournier’s review published on Letterboxd:
Pandemonium is technically an anthology, though the three interconnected tales blend together by the end. Directed by French director, Quarx, known for "All the Gods in the Sky", the film opens with a haunting aftermath of a car crash that leads into darker, fantasy-infused elements. While the three stories are distinct, they form a cohesive narrative that becomes clearer by the end.
Quarx demonstrates a strong eye for horror and the macabre. The first tale leans more toward fantasy with hints of science fiction, while the second delves into gothic and eerie territory. The final story culminates in a disturbing and unsettling denouement. Among the many cinematic depictions of hell, this one stands out for its last few minutes which are raw, nightmarish intensity.
That said, the narrative might confuse some viewers, as there’s no clear indication when the story shifts from one tale to the next, and the film offers no exposition to ease the transition. This caught me off guard initially. However, each segment maintains its own distinct character, style, and horror elements, keeping the experience engaging throughout.
I’d recommend Pandemonium to horror fans seeking something unique, especially those who appreciate a non-traditional approach to storytelling. While this won't be for all tastes, it's still worth seeking out, and giving it a view. I’m eager to see what, this French direct, Quarx, has in store next.
