Movie Reviews

  • visually stunning, sticks out like a sore thumb in an otherwise bland film
    2.5 of 5 by Chris Bumbray [JoBlo's Movie Emporium ]
  • they've taken an intriguing story about female neuroses with gothic overtones and turned it into a graceless, butt-ugly attempt at Twilight-lite
    1 of 5 by David Fear [Time Out New York ]
  • the whole thing is rather silly, but it does offer the occasional elegant, gothic shiver
    2 of 5 by Stephanie Zacharek [Movieline ]
  • the kind of class that only exists in movies like this
    1 of 5 by Joe Neumaier [New York Daily News ]
  • the film's narrative frailties are offset by impeccable performances and a consistently eerie tone
    3 of 5 by Jeannette Catsoulis [New York Times ]
  • not enough psychology to be intelligently creepy, and not enough schlock to be viscerally scary
    2 of 4 by Rick Groen [Globe and Mail ]
  • nlike American Psycho, the movie is too polite for its own good
    2 of 4 by Rex Reed [New York Observer ]
  • lacks sufficient scare power
    by Betty Jo Tucker [ReelTalk Movie Reviews ]
  • lacking the light touch and satiric black humor she deployed in American Psycho
    by Nick Schager [Village Voice ]
  • her torpid adaptation of Rachel Klein's novel about female sexual desire, jealousy, death wishes, and vampires at a girls' boarding school defeats Harron's talent for exploring darkness on the edge of kinkiness
    Review rate : C by Lisa Schwarzbaum [Entertainment Weekly ]
  • fails to frighten, titillate or otherwise engage the imagination
    2 of 5 by Kathleen Murphy [MSN Movies ]
  • an example of how even the most skilled director can leave an audience confused and weary when hobbled by a mess of a script
    by Caitlin Colford [Paste Magazine ]
