Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Stinks from start to finish, like a wet burlap sack of gloom.
The attempt to build up a pressure cooker of horrified awe emerges from the simple fact that the movie has virtually nothing to show.
Efficient, suitably anonymous chiller.
They ought to be a whole lot scarier than they are in this tepid genre offering.
