	Author	Review
United States	Todd McCarthy Variety	"[It] grabs the viewer by the throat in the first few minutes, but quickly fritters away involvement by concentrating almost exclusively on two characters who are both annoying and boring."	NEU
United Kingdom	Paul Arendt BBC	"The post-apocalyptic atmosphere, all silence and falling ashes, is beautifully achieved (...) It's an impressive, if relentlessly depressing, piece of work (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Xan Brooks The Guardian	"A tense and effective morality tale; a vivid portrait of a town in crisis (...) It also wrings the maximum mileage from a meagre budget (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Kim Newman Empire	"[Cochrane and McCormack] are convincing and affecting in roles which cover a great deal of emotional ground (...) A necessary counter-argument to the wave of patriotic 9/11 movies (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Lisa Schwarzbaum Entertainment Weekly	"There are no zombies to distract from the plausibility of 'Right at Your Door'. And that’s what makes this smart, coolly horrifying American indie thriller one of the scariest movies you’re likely to see all year"	POS
United States	Phil Pirrello IGN	"The movie delivers on its gritty real-time premise by staying 100% committed to the plot, but that success would have been a greater one had we had more than mediocre characters and less-than-compelling actors playing them"	NEU
