The only real mystery ... is what is this great ensemble cast doing in such a poorly executed movie?

Reinvigorates the supernatural thriller genre with a much needed infusion of new ideas and just plain nasty, digital-free mischief.

Criminal waste of talent.

Pretty much what you would expect from the screenwriter of disappointing films such as Scream 3, Reindeer Games and Arlington Road.

A genuinely creepy offering in a world filled with contrived bland dramas posing as thrillers.

A paint-by-numbers supernatural thriller that's more interesting for its locations than for its story.

The Skeleton Key delivers on all formulaic counts, except one: It never serves up any truly nightmare-inspiring scares.

The voodoo lore is sketchy (it can't hurt unbelievers, except when it can), the plot obviously little but build-up to the big reveal.

There's lots of bad stuff brewing on the bayou in this occasionally scary but more often silly movie, which wastes some good actors along the way.

A diverting, stylish thriller that, despite pivoting on that and other whoppers, deserves credit for creating an authentic, original vibe.

This is a moody, creepy thriller with some genuinely scary moments and a couple of twists that took me completely by surprise.

This is essentially a haunted-house horror flick that starts off with effectively eerie scenes but devolves into a forced and mildly ridiculous ghost story.
