"One leaky vessel, despite veteran cinematographer Michael Goi’s professionally competent direction and a cast (also including Gary Oldman) well-equipped to handle more challenging, as well as more intelligent, material." 

"[It] is being marketed as a horror movie, but it should more accurately be described as a mystery. It would, after all, take a sleuth of Hercule Poirot-like talents to discern what attracted these supremely talented thespians to such lame, cliched material. 

"Mortimer struggles to keep the film afloat, despite a script that underserves the characters and the chills (...) She’s adrift in a film with a good set-up but little cohesion."
