Villaronga's unsettling lyrical nightmare hasn't aged a bit; it stays in the mind long after more bloodthirsty recent horror flicks have faded away.
Elliott Stein, Village Voice

May not be for everyone, but it is certainly disturbing, powerful, and accomplished in what it sets out to do.
Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader

Call it a critical prejudice, but I say slap an outboard motor on that baby and you've got yourself a movie.
Hal Hinson, Washington Post

Not all movies need to be warm portraits of the best in humanity. But when the subject is the psychological dark side in man (or woman), there ought to be something insightful to mull over.
Desson Thomson, Washington Post
