January 23, 2012Oh wow not many people really liked this? Maybe they expect more from a horror legend like Wes Craven. For a straight to DVD horror/slasher it was ok. It has an old school vibe and plot which was a throw back to the genre's hay day in the 80's. However the 2nd half of the film se... read more

January 5, 2012The fact that this hasn't yet been picked up by the "shitty horror canon" cult is completely beyond me. Inept in the most hilarious and incoherent of ways, My Soul to Take is nearly two hours of a once renowned horror master flying off the rails in grandiose fashion. Absolutely w... read more

August 29, 2011Wes Craven is a horror genius, but what the hell was he thinking when making this shit. The plot of this was too boring and stupid to explain, the story scrambled up and has so many things happening that we simply just don't care what happens. I mean, almost every scene had som... read more

May 15, 2011is it just possible that Craven fumbled the ball this time and gave us the equivalent of a fairly amateur teen horror flick?

March 10, 2011Wes, what the Hell happened? Utter crap like this is usually only made by true hacks and naive amateurs, not a veteran like you. Pretty much everything here is lame: poor acting, lazy writing, uninspired story, and careless direction. On top of that, it's all dull, lifeless, and ... read more

A thrill-free snooze that will certainly rank as one of the least -- if not the least -- effective entries in Craven's nearly 40-year canon of cinematic shockers. Full Review
October 11, 2010
Eric D. Snider, Film.com
What sinks it is Craven's simplistic, ham-fisted writing and inert direction. Full Review

Wesley Morris, Boston Globe
The worst horror movie Wes Craven's made perhaps ever. Full Review
October 9, 2010
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel
A puzzle with no solutions, a tale with a twist that isn't a twist at all. Full Review

Adam Markovitz, Entertainment Weekly
Wes Craven's first new movie in five years is a brainless, joyless, and yes, you might even say, soulless teen slasher. Full Review

Frank Scheck, Hollywood Reporter
It's your money that's at greater stake with this subpar horror entry in barely noticeable 3D. Full Review

Dennis Harvey, Variety
This dumb, derivative teen slasher movie would be uninspiring coming from any writer-director, let alone one with several genre classics under his belt. Full Review

Sarah Sluis, Film Journal International
A single-serving package of adrenaline that wears off quickly. Full Review
