Critics Reviews

The New York Times
Maybe there will be an oversaturation of ''Scream''-inspired horror films someday soon, but this one feels fresh.
TV Guide
Fun if you like this kind of thing and don't expect too much of it.

Another teen horror movie
not the best of this genre, but ok for an easy movie to watch, if you’re into this kind of flick.
