But now, as more attention shines on the horror movie, many other viewers are claiming it isn’t really that scary at all.
It seems that while it is absolutely terrifying casual moviegoers, the more experienced horror aficionados are finding it to be business as usual.
What’s more, its Audience Score on Rotten Tomatoes is a pretty lowly 40%.
“Just watched the ‘scariest film of the year’ on Netflix – #Veronica. It was good, quite scary, a few jump scares, creepy demons and ouija boards… Yet definitely not THE scariest film I have ever seen,” reasoned one viewer.
“I’m sorry but #Veronica is just a standard oujia board/possession movie… it’s not scary,” said another.

A third person wrote: “Lol the movie “Veronica” is not scary at all.”
One capital letter enthusiast warned: “VERONICA IS NOT SCARY DONT BELIEVE THE HYPE ITS HOT GARBAGE.”
“I did not mind the horror film Veronica but OMG it is soooo overrated… This happens with so many horror films. ‘So scary people could not finish it’ what a load of BS,” read an additional post.
Yet another tweet reads: “10/10 would NOT recommend watching Verónica on Netflix. So overhyped and stupid. Lol.”
With professional critics, the film has a generally good reception: its Rotten Tomatoes score is currently 67%, earning it Certified Fresh status.
The true story behind Veronica has also surfaced – and is possibly even more unnerving than the movie.
Veronica is streaming on Netflix now.
