The problem here isn’t just the ludicrous and sometimes-confusing story. It also features awesomely awful dialogue.

Reviews for Soul Survivors
A toothless, fright-free journey into dullsville.
10/15/01
Blatantly cannibalising every horror movie it can think of in the attempt to produce some patchwork Frankenstein's monster.
01/07/02
Purgatory is an apt metaphor for the experience the new horror movie Soul Survivors offers its audiences. It may not amount to torment, but watching it definitely borders on torture.
09/07/01
The concept of the story is far more interesting than the finished product, which is standard fare at best.
09/13/01
Top CriticA muddled script and sloppy editing render the first half of the film nearly incomprehensible.
09/10/01
Soul Survivors wants to be like a bad dream and it succeeds. Unfortunately, bad in this case doesn't mean scary and surreal. It means boring and confused.

If most thrillers were as original and well-made as this one, we'd all be very lucky.

Nothing can breathe life into this corpse of a flick.

[A] jumbled botch.

We’ve been here before, and we’ll be here again.

A cinematic oxymoron: the tasteful teensploitation pic.
09/14/01
Though overly reliant on quick-cut montages and shots of Cassie running down hallways, writer/director Steve Carpenter delivers some modest thrills alongside the usual teen-horror clichés.
09/17/01
Dull and inept. It probably won't offend your sensibilities but it may insult your intelligence.
06/03/02
A serviceable entry in the low-budget horror column, and makes the most of its limited resources with stirring imagery and a full-blown performance by its star.
02/08/03
An exercise in spinning wheels, a muddle of images, ideas, and characters that don't go anywhere, let alone make any sense.
12/08/02
So awful I feel compelled to knock on doors and warn people about it.
09/10/01
Soul Survivors is such a numbingly opaque and enervating movie experience that even Jeepers Creepers seems poetic and luminous by comparison.
09/10/01
It's a terrible punning title... Quite apart from being lame in itself, it actually helps to give away the correspondingly lame ending in this teen horror vehicle for Hollywood's newest, cutest young stars.
