Entertainment Reviews:
This deliberately tasteless horror-comedy might appeal to gore hounds and fans of gross-out humor; but as with many films that strive for cult status, any potential exploitation-movie pleasures are overwhelmed by an air of smug self-awareness.

Rating: 2.5/5.0 --
Boris Rodriguez's movie sadly ends up being neither an effective horror movie nor a memorable satire. It just kind of, pardon me for going there, sleepwalks through its clever set-up.

Rating: C+ --
The results may get muddled when tonal shifts are forced, but Eddie nonetheless entertains with enough originality to forgive its otherwise familiar tropes.

This would-be cult item runs out of steam after its establishes its wickedly satirical premise.

Hollywood Reporter
A dark comedy driven by spot-on digs at academia, cutthroat art-world competition and the quest for inspiration.

Film Journal International
Thankfully, Lindhardt keeps things together with an appealing performance that constantly oscillates between drama and very light, dry humor without sacrificing the slightly otherworldly nature of his character.

Rating: B --
Beneath the surface outrageousness lies a surprisingly, satisfyingly dark little fable about the essentially cannibalistic nature of artistic inspiration.

Product Description:
When Lars' art dealer Ronny arranges a teaching job in a small town as a "therapeutic measure" to stir up his creative juices, things don't quite turn out as planned. At first, life in the peaceful town seems rosy, as he settles in and impresses beautiful colleague Leslie by taking in the brawny, mute Eddie after his caregiver passes away. Lars soon discovers that the facade of serenity hides something unimaginable Eddie suffers from a rare form of sleepwalking that transforms him from a docile, cereal-obsessed art student into a ravenous cannibal. Initially horrified by Eddie's dark secret, Lars becomes enthralled by the not-so-gentle giant: At long last, here's the muse he'd been searching for!
