Stinks from start to finish, like a wet burlap sack of gloom.
Paul Malcolm, L.A. Weekly
Rotten
The attempt to build up a pressure cooker of horrified awe emerges from the simple fact that the movie has virtually nothing to show.
Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly

Efficient, suitably anonymous chiller.
Ed Park, Village Voice
Rotten
They ought to be a whole lot scarier than they are in this tepid genre offering.
