Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Director Fabrice Du Welz doesn't reinvent the backwoods-freakshow formula, but there is something undeniably entertaining about violent psychos who are also committed art lovers.
– Elizabeth Weitzman,
New York Daily News,
12 Aug 2006
fresh:
Director-co-writer Fabrice du Welz has taken a cliched premise and infused it with a stylish perversity that should have horror fans squealing with delight.
– V.A. Musetto,
New York Post,
12 Aug 2006
fresh:
By the time it reaches its final act, the film rivals its American counterparts in intensity if not quite in explicit violence.
– Frank Scheck,
Hollywood Reporter,
14 Aug 2006
fresh:
What sells this movie is the realistic attention to detail and the bravura direction of Fabrice Du Welz, who draws a gut-wrenching performance from Lucas.
– G. Allen Johnson,
San Francisco Chronicle,
6 Oct 2006
rotten:
Du Welz has definite visual-dramatic talent. (Calvaire was a Cannes festival pick.) But, like Norman Bates' car, he need to get pulled out of the swamp.
