Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
Hardcore horror heads may scorn its snail pace and shaggy-dog sweetness, but for discerning viewers, 'The Innkeepers' is a slow-burning charmer.

We can't dissociate ourselves from the evil because, as in much of the best horror, what's scaring us isn't external; it's everything we fear seeing when we look in the mirror.

West freshens up the horror genre with a distinctive, careful camera style and an ability to write with empathy and humor.

The Innkeepers makes such youthful passivity seem nearly as treacherous as opening the cellar door.

This film has some of the usual scary cues and tense moments, but the setting, the old Yankee Pedlar inn, emerges as a more interesting character than any of the people.
