James Berardinelli
Generally speaking, I like a little more plot with my 'Boo!' moments.
Richard Roeper
It's no more impressive than hiding in the dark and shouting 'Boo!' when someone walks into a room.
Michael O'Sullivan
It's just not the kind of frightening that stays with you very long, unless of course someone decides to make the same movie . . . yet again.
Stephen Hunter
It's enough to send you home with jiggly knees and a tummy ache.
Geoff Pevere
Almost every single one of the American characters has maybe a third of the personality of the ghosts that haunt them, so you begin to think the grudge itself is less a curse than a perfectly reasonable eviction strategy.
Jeff Shannon
It's refreshing to see a PG-13 horror film that aims for good old-fashioned spookiness.

As it turns out, there is such a thing as a horror film with too much mindless killing.
