February 24, 2012Corny and predictable, but easy watching. Dorff plays the bad guy reasonably well, no boring parts, but could have been helped along with more suspense..

February 18, 2011A watchable but unspectacular thriller about a family of New Yorkers who move into a big country house with a sinister past that brings dangerous consequence for the new occupants. The film builds slowly gathering a bit of mystery and suspense then gets a little livelier towards ... read more

September 26, 2010Tense thriller about a family who move into their new home. They are soon targeted by the old tenant who has a dark secret and wants them out. Good cast.

May 23, 2010A truly terrible and bland movie, the only worthwhile element is the Stephen Dorf/Juliette Lewis crazy couple that reeks havoc on an unsuspecting good-natured family. Half of the movie is a poor rip-off of the original Amityville horror and the other half is a poor rip-off of Las... read more

August 18, 2009The snakes really freaked me out. And the weird thing is that I am not afraid of snakes in real life. I jumped so much during those scenes though...

February 4, 2009Despite the presence of Juliette Lewis, Dennis Quaid, and Sharon Stone, Cold Creek Manor just comes off as a made-for-tv movie. A boring made-for-tv movie. It's predictable and unforgivably dull.
The plot is as cliche as it is thin. A husband and wife move from the city to a la... read more -

March 7, 2008Not bad just painfully dull and predictable. City couple go off to live a new life in the country "Oooooh". There they find pretty much everyone is a country hick sick of these cityslickers "WOW". Then Stephen Dorff starts acting creepy. The film gets one star for the performance... read more

December 11, 2007I was very disappointed, and not just because I had thought it was a supernatural horror film. I doo think the snakes scene was quite effective, but the rest...sigh...

May 21, 2007Not a bad thriller not as scary or spooky as some. Similar to Cape Fear in some ways.

... a good-looking thriller by an excellent director with strong performances from Sharon Stone and Dennis Quaid -- yet it's oddly flat, with an exasperating plot, lots of strange turns and hardly any... Full Review

Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com
At the beginning, Cold Creek Manor almost makes you believe it could deliver all that and more. Instead, it follows the weary, well-worn path of so many contemporary scare-fests. Full Review

Reilly Capps, Washington Post
The whole thing is a waste of good professional filmmaking.

Claudia Puig, USA Today
Quaid does his level best with a lame character, but Stone sinks under the weight of a thankless role. Full Review

Geoff Pevere, Toronto Star
In mechanical terms, Figgis can't seem to generate anything resembling a genuine startle or moment of suspense, and his sense of internal dramatic logic seems as cracked and flimsy as the tiling on th... Full Review

Glenn Lovell, San Jose Mercury News
Keeps us squirming for about two-thirds of its running length.

Edward Guthmann, San Francisco Chronicle
Hokum with a big-budget gloss, it's a simple, formulaic nail-biter. Full Review

Jay Boyar, Orlando Sentinel
The style is cold, the plot is creaky, and the cast is far too mannered.

John Anderson, Newsday
Cold Creek Manor is bad on purpose. It's just not bad enough. Full Review
