Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes

Glenn Lovell, San Jose Mercury News: No, it's not as single-minded as John Carpenter's original, but it's sure a lot smarter and more unnerving than the sequels. Read more

John Monaghan, Detroit Free Press: Generic slasher-movie nonsense, but it's not without style. Read more

James Berardinelli, ReelViews: There's no evidence of craftsmanship or energy. Everything, from the plot to the execution, is plodding and obligatory. Read more

Atlanta Journal-Constitution: Read more

Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly: Comes closer to comatainment. Read more

Jennie Punter, Globe and Mail: Its premise is smart, but the execution is pretty weary. Read more

Tom Maurstad, Dallas Morning News: The thrill is (long) gone. Read more

Loren King, Chicago Tribune: Like its parade of predecessors, this Halloween is a gory slash-fest. It can't escape its past, and it doesn't want to. Read more

Dave Kehr, New York Times: Spectators will indeed sit open-mouthed before the screen, not screaming but yawning. Read more

Edward Guthmann, San Francisco Chronicle: A cheesy thing that opened Friday without any advance screening. Read more

Daphne Gordon, Toronto Star: While the production values here are more cool than crappy, there's nothing really new about Resurrection. Read more

Joe Leydon, Variety: [Seems] even more uselessly redundant and shamelessly money-grubbing than most third-rate horror sequels. Read more
