King is not the only audience member who was impressed by the project. One critic wrote, “Do everything in your power to let this one be a surprise for you, and your reward will be one of the most fascinating, flawlessly constructed crime dramas I’ve seen in a while.”
Another commented, “Best experienced with as little foreknowledge as possible, ‘Strange Darling’ demands a bit of patience, but it also rewards it.”
Though the review pool is small at the moment, Strange Darling currently holds aperfect Rotten Tomatoes scoreof 100% just a few weeks before it premieres across the country.
Strange Darling is a cat-and-mouse thriller that follows a woman who hooks up with a man who’s secretly a serial killer. Upon this revelation, the woman quickly becomes the killer’s new prey and has to try to save her life at any cost.
