The shocks, and the repressed wickedness, as in all well-done horror films, build slowly, then reach a crescendo that is hard to bear and harder to shake off.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Fresh
A sense of dread suffuses this film, which offers yet another slice of World War II history.
Cynthia Dickison, Minneapolis Star Tribune
Fresh
There is something especially unsettling about groupthink, particularly when it comes to evil.
Bill Goodykoontz, Arizona Republic
Fresh
Jozek's and Franek's characters (and Czop's and Stuhr's performances) are continually surprising and ultimately indelible. You can read how their mindsets shift as they stumble onto new truths.
Michael Sragow, Orange County Register
Rotten
Director Wladyslaw Pasikowski has made the mistake of going about his business as if he were fashioning a horror film.
Peter Rainer, Christian Science Monitor
