	Author	Review
United States	Dennis Harvey Variety	"It doesn’t bore, but at 90 minutes it lacks the kind of heft, hilarity or other assertive quality that render its pleasant-enough progress memorable."	NEU
United States	John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter	"The pic relies almost entirely on the subtle comic gifts of its two leads, finding little in the way of plot to kick its characters into laugh-generating action"	NEU
United States	Village Voice	"Proksch tilts his wretchedness into menace, and Mell stages a climax that's thrilling and ridiculous in equal measure."	POS
United States	Simon Abrams rogerebert.com	"Even the movie's refreshingly atypical focus on character-driven neuroses over pat post-'Poltergeist'-style jump-scares can't save 'Another Evil' from its creators' lack of ideas (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 4)"	NEG
United States	Jeannette Catsoulis The New York Times	"'Another Evil' is an ultra-low-budget ghost story with an off-kilter sensibility that initially intrigues but ultimately fizzles."	NEG
United States	Gary Goldstein Los Angeles Times	"A tonal mishmash involving silly demon-trapping bits, supernatural speculation and lots of yakking that derails the film’s potential tension and credibility."	NEG
