Reviews

Swedish director Mikael Hafstrom creates a compelling ride of a movie. Every beat of the film is weighted with significance, and our mounting dread becomes almost intolerable.
78
The movie appeals to an old-fashioned sense of horror.
75
A deft Stephen King freak-out.

Chicago Tribune
Swift, sharp adaptation of Stephen King's short story (from the "Everything's Eventual" collection).
75
Cusack, who is beginning to look disturbingly like Dustin Hoffman, is not only the film's center, but its orbit as well.
