Full Review | Original Score: B | Feb 28, 2007

The movie sinks so deep into deathly atmosphere that there's no life to it.

| Original Score: D- | Feb 28, 2007

Heralds the arrival of a new talent that every horror fan should keep their eyes on, if they're not covering them with their hands.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Feb 26, 2007

Through the murk and gloom of The Abandoned; a mystery emerges: Why didn't this go straight to DVD?

Eerie frights here are more a matter of sheer dread-soaked atmosphere.
