 "John Cena is certainly no Bruce Wills.... you will probably find yourself praying for this duel's knock-out punch to arrive long before it actually does." |

 "If the result features around 1,783 too many fart gags, to be fair, it also boasts a couple of genuine minor scares." |

 "...superior to many low-budget terror flicks since 'Paranormal'... benefits hugely from Dimitri Diatchenko's performance as moviedom's Worst. Tour. Guide. Ever." |

 "...holds the attention for the first half, assisted by Heitor Dhalia's fat-free direction and Seyfried's evocative saucer-eyes. But by the end, viewers may be left pondering..." |

 "Unpredictability isn't this horror film's strength, but it's stylishly crafted and excellently acted, and it boasts an abundance of heart in every sense of the word." |

 "...the fact that the psycho's weapon of choice is a pickax does lend itself to the 3-D treatment. But what really leaps out at you about the film is its lack of imagination." |
