Rotten
By far the worst 'slasher movie' remake to date, replaying all the cliches, but delivering none of the guilty pleasures.

There's no need to wear a corsage to Prom Night. And leaving your higher brain functions at home might be a good idea, too.
Clark Collis, Entertainment Weekly
Rotten
A bland, timid and thoroughly un-thrilling teen thriller.
Jason Anderson, Globe and Mail
Rotten
There's absolutely zippo to fear about this movie, unless you're the kind of person who jumps when formula bogeymen do exactly what you'd expect them to do.
Peter Howell, Toronto Star
Rotten
There's no suspense or perversity. You don't care who lives or who dies -- just please make it soon.
Wesley Morris, Boston Globe
