REVIEWS BY CRITICS

“..a proficient, rattling horror story..”
by Nick Pinkerton [Village Voice]
“..occasionally stupid (stretching even fright-flick conventions) but scary nonetheless, the pic should please horror fans..”
by John DeFore [Hollywood Reporter]
“..a few honestly terrifying jolts, it's also the rare horror movie that's just ingenious enough about stitching together everything it borrows to make its second-hand quality kind of fun..”
by Owen Gleiberman [Entertainment Weekly]
