Fresh
It transcends the conventions of the horror genre and remains one of Lewton-Tourneur's most compelling studies in light and darkness.
Don Druker, Chicago Reader
Rotten
A dull, disgusting exaggeration of an unhealthy, abnormal concept of life.
Thomas M. Pryor, New York Times
Fresh
It is Tourneur's caressingly evocative direction, superbly backed by Roy Hunt's chiaroscuro images, that makes sheer magic of the film's brooding journey into fear.
Tom Milne, Time Out
