Los Angeles Times -
Disturbing, disorienting, quietly terrifying, it's one of the least known of the world's great horror movies and, in its own dark way, a startlingly beautiful and artful piece of cinema as well.

There’s no other movie quite like it.

Village Voice -
A masterpiece of poetic horror and tactful, tactile brutality.

Chicago Reader -
As absurd and as beautiful as a fairy tale, this chilling, nocturnal black-and-white masterpiece was originally released in this country dubbed and under the title "The Horror Chamber of Dr. Faustus," but it's much too elegant to warrant the usual "psychotronic" treatment.

Chicago Sun-Times -
Franju constructs an elegant visual work; here is a horror movie in which the shrieks are not by the characters but by the images.
