	Author	Review
United States	Owen Gleiberman Variety	"Even when it seems to be making things up as it goes along, its slapdash hallucinatory quality is a token gesture toward placing you inside the characters' heads."	POS
United States	Robert Abele The Wrap	"Succumbs to the usual genre pitfalls: loud and empty shocks, monotony, and talk-explain-talk-explain scenes that drain the movie of any ghoulish mystery it might have held."	NEG
United States	Glenn Kenny The New York Times	"This horror movie has a hook that's sharper than it sounds."	POS
United States	David Fear Rolling Stone	"Horror-movie fans often have put up with a lot to get their requisite amount of fright per month, and that tolerance limit is seriously tested by this slapdash attempt to introduce a new slasher hall-of-fame character into the mix. (...) Rating: ½ (out of four)"	NEG
United States	Justin Lowe The Hollywood Reporter	"Often involving, although not quite entirely satisfying."	NEU
