Rotten
Offers fairly meagre chills. Still, the script has a few inventive (if not necessarily credible) moves up its sleeve.

It's hard not to think of viewing "Dark Summer" as running-time served.
Robert Abele, Los Angeles Times
Rotten
There is something profoundly draining and suffocatingly incestuous about watching a film that's dedicated to watching a computer screen.
Jeannette Catsoulis, New York Times
Rotten
As an exercise in atmosphere, this claustrophobic creeper does a lot with a little, even if the movie winds up providing just superficial shivers.
Joe Neumaier, New York Daily News
Rotten
A clumsily established premise develops into little more than a series of familiar "gotcha!" scares.
Dennis Harvey, Variety
