Kár, hogy az egyes történetek nincsenek értelmesen (vagy legalábbis valahogyan!) összekapcsolva. Szofisztikált kirakóként jól működne. Így a film úgy hat, mintha több filmalkotó haver egymástól független rövidfilmekből álló tákolmány lenne, akik - ki-ki a saját ízlése szerint - "valami kísérteties történetet készítettek valahol a nyugat-amerikai külterületen". Folyamatosan szórakoztató, de végül nem kielégítő.

An anthology of short stories that is not an anthology of short stories. Rather, it’s a frantic ride through a western small town and its surroundings where strange things happen. This eliminates the problem of the short story anthology films, where mostly the “to each their own” rule applies. Southbound, in contrast, gives a rather holistic impression, with an atmosphere that stays within marked boundaries. And there’s always something happening. It’s a very gratifying film that doesn’t keep you waiting, and the authors try to please the viewer with a substantial number of horror properties and you almost don’t have time to catch your breath. I was reminded of In the Mouth of Madness, the atmosphere of that hellish small town is very similar. Even the main score is a bit “Carpenterish”. 8/10

"Southbound" is a quite enjoyable anthology film, which is characterized by being very well-made in every aspect. It has very good special effects, the picture quality is great, and the acting is not bad either. It is a nice film to watch, but none of the stories stood out to me enough to remember them more. On the other hand, the hovering monster is fantastic and definitely memorable.
