Down a Dark Hall
The Press Reviews
Its elegant subtlety feels refreshing in this era of over-the-top horror films. Full Review
The scares might not satisfy those old enough to vote, but it should provide mild chills for its target audience. Full Review
With each new element, "Down a Dark Hall" reveals itself, with improbable delight, to be genuinely strange - a movie in which viewers can pick their own pleasure, no two spectators having exactly the same experience. Full Review
This is a decent modern Gothic thriller handled with sufficient style and a straight face by genre ace Cortés. Full Review
