Well-depicted psychological insecurity when a girl, seeking shelter from a storm, enters a stranger’s caravan and doesn’t know if its owner is or is not dangerous. An hour of dialogue during which the two check each other out and anticipate each other’s reactions, interspersed with the creaking of the caravan and the powerful sound of thunder, wind and rain. The guy is weird, unreadable and, mainly, paranoid, which after certain events leads to a hallucinogenic wilderness with a mix of factual cards on the table that the viewer will find confusing. And that’s a shame. [Sitges Film Festival]

A hilarious Australian psychological slow burner with two characters with one cabin and a violent storm, all with great cinematography, great acting, well-written dialogue, great music and a paranoid mystery atmosphere. I'm the last person to praise this kind of movie without jumpscars and gore, but I have to say that the third act won me over enough that I won't hesitate to give it 4 stars. I really like the themes where a stranger knocks at your door and you don’t know who is the good guy and who is the bad guy all the time, and it's really not transparent here. Even though the first hour is just dialogue in a cabin that makes up for the knocking on the door and a nasty storm, it works and kept my attention. It picks up nicely towards the end and kicks off with a decently intense atmospheric paranoid-hallucinogenic inferno, where the sound designer again does a precise job. An Australian gem that made an impression. 7/10.

Up until the final quarter, You’ll Never Find Me is a rather gripping and cleverly directed minimalistic psychological study of two characters whom fate has brought together in an isolated location and between whom nervous tension is skilfully built up over a long period of time. This is aided by solid work with darkness and editing, as well as the sounds of the storm raging outside. However, all of that is spoiled by the confusing denouement, which at the last moment attempts to weave together all of the motifs that have been broached and surprise or even shock viewers with new twists, but it comes off as too rushed and chaotic.
