The film looks good, it sounds great (Marco Beltrami and Buck Sanders' score is full of darkly murmuring woodwinds), and Madison is a pip of a lead.

A welcome alternative to the current genre offerings, steeped in old-fashioned atmosphere and faithful to haunted house routine, albeit to a fault.

This is still a seriously entertaining horror movie, one that will please newcomers as well as fans of the original oddity.
Matthew Hays, Globe and Mail
Rotten
Despite all the care that has been put into it, the film doesn't transcend its dime-store horror roots.
