Reception

Noel Murray of the Los Angeles Times wrote, "There’s nothing notably new — or especially scary — about any of it." [2]

Frank Scheck of The Hollywood Reporter wrote, "Even the reliably good Shaye can't rescue this amateurish, overly derivative effort." [1]

Setphanie Archer of Film Inquiry wrote, "While there are pieces of a truly successful horror film scattered throughout, they are drowned within a film lacking character depth, unnecessary exposition, poor technical execution and a continued male perspective of female treatment in horror films." [3]
