Dahlia Williams and her daughter Cecelia move into a rundown apartment on New York's Roosevelt Island. She is currently in midst of divorce proceedings and the apartment, though near an excellent school for her daughter, is all she can afford.

Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Working from a premise that's not only thin but transparent, Salles struggles mightily to generate tension in any other way possible.

rotten:
Dark Water has more substance and a more interesting look than many horror films, but the familiar elements of the story disappoint.

rotten:
A tasteful but unremitting bummer and yet one more case of an Oscar-winning actress proving that she can still do the kinds of disposable movies big awards are supposedly meant to banish from your resume forever.
– Ann Hornaday,

rotten:
Like so many recent thrillers of this ilk, many of them in some way exploiting the 'innocence' of childhood -- the dumb and unpleasant Hide and Seek springs to mind -- Dark Water falls apart in the wind-down.

It fails to deliver the narrative thrill twists its origins would promise.
