Movie Reviews

New York Times - 6/10 by Vincent CanbyI challenge even the most indulgent fan to give a coherent translation of what passes for an explanation at the end.
eFilmCritic.com - 6/10 by Scott WeinbergFans of old-fashioned, atmospheric ghost tales will forgive the film's obvious faults, but even they will have a hard time generating much enthusiasm for the movie.
Film Freak Central - 5/10 by Walter ChawA movie about how a camera presents a point of view and of how that point of view, if it's not attached to a specific identity, can become menacingly voyeuristic.
Associated Press - 4/10 by Bob ThomasWatcher in the Woods is a first-class thriller, far superior to the usual run of frightened-girl, creepy house movies.
People Magazine - 4/10 by People StaffDavis, in her 50th year in movies, is wonderfully wicked. But she can't compensate, especially for the contrived ending of this Disneyville Horror.
Nerdist - 4/10 by Kyle AndersonEven with a lackluster ending, The Watcher in the Woods is one of the more effective young adult horror pictures.
Sight and Sound - 4/10 by Joseph StannardThe Watcher in the Woods is a haunting, unusual film, steeped in a strange magic that's only enhanced by the dense thicket of rumour and myth that surrounds it.
TV Guide - 3/10 by TV Guide StaffThis tepid ghost story fails to focus on either its story or its target audience.
Variety - 2/10 by Variety StaffThe acting and writing are barely professional but the art direction, especially Alan Hume's stunning camerawork, gives the pic a gloss.
User Review - 10/10 by Brent HProbably the scariest and best horror movie made by Disney. A classic.
