The set-up is chillingly effective, suffused with a nagging, damp disquiet from the marshes nearby.

| Dec 27, 2023

An entirely spooky and exciting throwback to some of the best haunted house movies of yesteryear.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Sep 24, 2023

The filmmakers rely far too much on common ghost story mechanics to propel the plot.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Mar 1, 2023

With the exception of a few cheap, loud, volume burst jump scenes, the movie manufactures its terror through slick camera work, dark and dreary locations, and a genuinely spooky ambience.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Aug 21, 2022

Goldman appeared the perfect pick to adapt the play and the book, while still maintaining a fresh spin on things. Which makes it all the more crushing that the film's major flaw should stem from her pen.

A fine and appropriate return to atmospheric horror movies for the once great Hammer Films.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Dec 2, 2020

While Radcliffe may not give a stand-out performance, he gives a good performance that can't help but make one believe that he may very well survive life without Harry Potter.

| Original Score: 3.0/4.0 | Sep 27, 2020

A largely effective shocker - one which will no doubt play well to the multiplex audience it so clearly covets - but it has no lasting value beyond its basic remit to spook.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 21, 2020

...a few well-trodden horror tropes aside, I needed the distraction of my phone and the safety of a blanket to keep me safe from The Woman In Black.

[H]aunting and chilling.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Dec 10, 2019

Be afraid. Be very afraid of The Woman In Black. It will scare you to death.

| Nov 26, 2019

[D]espite its period setting, this Woman in Black is an effective modern horror; one which, like its petrifying protagonist, is sure to haunt your dreams.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Oct 23, 2019

Even if The Woman in Black is less than the sum of its spooky moments, it delivers some genuine chills. And Radcliffe is well supported...

| Jul 29, 2019

Radcliffe drives the movie.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 29, 2019

[The Woman in Black] displays a sense of real style and real fear, driven by mythology that works on both the rational and the visceral levels.

| Original Score: B+ | Feb 6, 2019

Hammer is undoubtedly back as a filmmaking force, but falls marginally short of re-capturing the uncanny ghoulishness of their heyday years.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 13, 2018

Cultivating a stark, yet rich atmosphere of choking dread and inescapable horror, The Woman In Black is a strong reminder of what a true horror film should be.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Nov 4, 2018

This movie felt like warmed over goodness, rather than something fresh and spicy.

| May 23, 2018

The Woman in Black brings nothing new to the table but it makes better use of the generic ghost tricks than most films of this ilk.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 28, 2017

Prepare for some chills and thrills if you're heading to check out Daniel Radcliffe's post-Potter debut.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Sep 5, 2017
