Enjoyable mix of humor and horror. Not up to Raimi levels, but still entertaining.

A couple of humourous moments here and there but most of those are uncreative and juvenile. There's plenty of gore here for the splatter fans and a plot that's so stupid you'll never be lost ever. Competently made in terms of film making, you're never lost as to what's going on and the editing keeps things moving which can be a problem in horror flicks. Still, unless you're a die hard horror fan this won't entertain.

A pretty fucking awesome horror/black comedy. It's not exactly scary, per se, but it's fucking funny as hell. If you love bad horror film, this movie was made for you, as it doesn't try to take itself seriously most of the time but does poke fun at it's own genre.

Pretty fun and entertaining horror-comedy. it isn't a classic by any means, but if you like the genre you'll dig it.

Pretty confused movie that wants to be both suspenseful and deadpan witty, but bounces back and forth too quickly between the two, completely destroying any opportunity to establish a mood. But if you discarded the comedic elements entirely, this would be just completely forgettable and by-the-numbers. Somehow this left me wanting both more and less.

It is hilarious and at times quite suspenseful, but no masterpiece by any means.

An enjoyable little splattercom, although I enjoyed the buildup far more than the payoff. Kudos to whomever made the previews for this film I was expecting more than was delivered after those.

Slow build-up, but man, what a great payoff! Steve (played by Danny Dyer) has got to be by next favorite character/actor in a horror film, second only to the immortal 'Ash' (Bruce Campbell) in Evil Dead. This movie was a lot of fun. It was able to satisfy both the gore and the humour quotient required of the tricky genre 'splattercom.'

It feels like this film doesn't really know whether it wants to be a full-blown satire or a an actual by-the-book-horror film. The end result is both parts get half-assed. But a good quarter of the movie is very funny.

Tried to mix humor and horror, and ended up with a movie that felt lacking on both ends. There are a few laughs, and a few jumps, but the whole experience leaves you thinking that the film could have been a lot better than it was.

Tries to be a mixture of horror and comedy and fails on both accounts. The tone of the entire film is horror, so the jokes are not only very bad, but they seem completely out of place. Practically every attempt at humor fails and the suspense is mediocre at best. Just a complete waste of time.

Not really funny, not gory enough (best kills happen offscreen) and completely cliche storyline that we could see in hundreds of horrors before this one (and many times done much better).

Had no idea what this film was about before watching it, and have to say I didnt know whether it was a comedy, or a horror / thriller ... there were some great laughs, yet some really gruesome scenes too .... in the end it was clear that it was a really well acted, scripted and shot comedy/horror. I usually prefer one or the other genre, but this really worked in "Severence". Excellent performances helped from all the ensemble, never "playing for laughs" but never losing comedic timing.

Starts out relatively promising and then becomes more run-of-the-mill than, err, a mill that runs really well.

I'm not a huge fan of slashers, but this one did a decent job of subverting my expectations at several turns. Nice bit of espresso-dark humour and it was good to see Dead Like Me's Laura Harris in action again.

Someone called it "Office Space meets Deliverance"; more like Friday the 13th IV meets a PG-rated Hostel. Decent idea, good actors, a couple of great gags, but let down by the same crap director who ruined Creep.

C-list cast doing D-grade material. Ridiculously mad characters bumble through a truly moronic plot, packed with schlocky cheap thrills and themes grossly derived from other equally bad entries in the gore genre. If you're going to be this unoriginal, why not remake a film that works, like The Shining or Alien?

It begins with two women falling into a hole about 8 feet deep - the best plan they can hatch to get out is to strip down to their underwear. A few seconds later a guy gets disembowelled. That sums up the entire film, really. It's the very definition of a dumb, by-the-numbers, cabin-in-the-woods slasher flick. There is some humour, I'll give it that, but mostly it just falls flat. If you're looking for an original plot or a film with believable characters, then don't watch this.

"Severance's lame jokes are fully formed, something that can't be said about its political critique." - Nick Schager

Quasi-comedy horror doesn't sound that appealing, but Severance gets away with it with much more style than one would expect. I didn't find it very funny, to be honest (I didn't find it painfully unfunny either, though), but I did actually get creeped out a few times in the first half. Remains entertaining throughout.

Very good mixture of horror and comedy, in a very creepy setting.

7- recommended, good

A movie that is not quite sure whether its wants to be the next Dawn of the dead or the next Shaun of the dead, and unfortunately ends up being a movie that tries to be funny and scary at the same time but never fully succeeds on both accounts.

Nice
