"This movie takes a dark look at more than just a perturbed mind. It shows how a family unit can fall apart when all there is is misbegotten faith and dark demons plaguing Maggie's soul."

"The Afflicted is an uncomfortable film to watch. Maggie's brutality is matched only by her sheer insanity. Easterbrook gives a performance that, while over-the-top in a big way, is sheer brilliance. Her fragile psyche teeters between doting mom and mommy dearest. She's four ways of nuts and that is true horror … ranks right up there with The Girl Next Door on the uncomfortable meter."

"The Afflicted is a very sad and dark film. This film isn't meant to entertain, it hits you in the gut. Leslie Easterbrook is getting a round of applause from me for her role here and Kane just keeps getting better … The film deserves a 5 but I'm only giving it 4 because it depressed me on my day off. Not for everyone, "The Afflicted" will strike a chord with your emotions."
