“It’s films like Wayne’s that made me fall in love with indy films in the first place.”
- Scifilm

“Atmospheric, thoughtful, and captivating … Spitzer has put together 20 minutes of film that are easily as good or better than a fair percentage of the stuff that used to air on The Outer Limits every week."
- Ziggy’s Video Realm

“The film packs a lot of emotion and cohesive visual storytelling into its trim running time, not wasting a minute on forced narrative or expository imagery. Lean, mean, and effective, Shadows in the Garden delivers.”
- Horrorview

"Told with a touching fairytale simplicity matched with a flair for grand guignol … it makes for a spooky little fable that, at the climax, reveals itself as being well intentioned and effectively Capra sentimental."
- Film Festival Today

"The big difference here is that Wayne has obvious talent and a vision all his own, not one he's borrowing from someone else and then shredding it for all to wince at."
- Film Threat
