Director Tom Harper conveys this theme through dark, moldy-looking mise-en-scene and the uniformly sullen performances he elicits from the cast; you're more likely to find this depressing than scary.

Redundancy is about all it offers, despite an entirely new set of characters and a story set 40 years after the early 20th-century original.
Jesse Hassenger, AV Club
Rotten
The Woman may be back for another fright, but Angel of Death doesn't haunt like it should.
Kyle Anderson, Entertainment Weekly
Rotten
It's a dour, drab, dark movie, enlivened by some moderately effective chills in the first half but ultimately undone by its downbeat aimlessness.
Bilge Ebiri, New York Magazine/Vulture
Rotten
It's mostly deadly dull, and when it does liven up a tad, the haunted house tale offers only wan shock tactics.
