The Guardian - Peter Bradshaw
Seriously bloody horrible in every particular, and uncompromisingly bleak to the very end, this looks to me like the best British horror film in years: nasty, scary and tight as a drum.

L.A. Weekly - Unnamed
As a thriller, Eden Lake absolutely works, but feel-good entertainment it isn’t. Don’t bring a date.

Time Out London - Nigel Floyd
The shattering downbeat ending is well earned and genuinely shocking.

Empire - Simon Crook
You don't watch it, you survive it. A battering experience, and the hardest Brit horror in years.

Variety - Dennis Harvey
Eden Lake doesn't feel like torture porn so much as a rural-jeopardy thriller in extremis.
