Whistle‘s writing is standard and mediocre, typical of films about summoning death with percussion. However, horror fans will appreciate the creative deaths, solid acting, and an ending that leaves you wanting a sequel. https://www.giantfreakinrobot.com/ent/horror/whistle-review.html

With “Primate” it was a chimp, with “Whistle”, well yep - it’s a whistle. Otherwise there isn’t that much to distinguish the two.

The protagonists are lackluster, the direction flat, and end of characters just boring (with one violent exception), and the ending/s... I just want to sigh. I don't think it could be more predictable. I cannot recommend this, even if it looks pretty.
