Leave your thoughts about Vacancy.
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekDoesn't make a great addition to the register of motel-based horror movies. |
| E! OnlineMatt StevensSomeone should've snuffed out all the clichés in this film. |
| Reeling ReviewsRobin CliffordThere are some genuine thrills in Vacancy that make it a decent bill of fare for the horror fans. |
| Filmcritic.comChris CabinWe are given time in the beginning to understand the situation [the main characters] are in, but there's no real identity beyond what they mean to each other. |
| Toronto StarPeter HowellThe point of Vacancy is the terror, not the torture. Horror is vastly more effective when left to the mind's eye and it is what we can't see in Vacancy that truly frightens. |
| TheFilmFile.comDustin PutmanJust the ticket for genre fans starved for a movie that actually thrills. |
| ReelTalk Movie ReviewsFrank WilkinsThe terror in 'Vacancy,' a pleasantly frightening little tale, comes from interesting characters and psychology rather than action and blood. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzAn unpleasant and hardly entertaining creepy horror road movie that comes up as vacant as an empty room. |
| Mark Reviews MoviesMark DujsikThat the thrills are genuine and executed with a sure hand is what makes the film work; that the characters are sympathetic makes it work better than it should. |
| Arizona RepublicRandy CordovaA riveting little shocker in which a viewer buys into the entire grisly premise. |
