Macabre and transfixing: you can smell the rotting house and relish the sweet richness of good overacting.

...uniquely haunting and hilarious...Davis and Crawford energize this off-kilter psychological drama with calculating, campy performances

There is nothing particularly moving or significant about these two.

It's a classic of sorts, but too depressing to be much fun

A truly compelling portrait of a washed-up child star; even more compelling is the story of the peripheral people who suffer because of the misery of a washed-up child star.

It's a film that's a little slow to start and could benefit from a faster pace. But this is still essential viewing with the superb Davis in legend mode and Crawford wisely under-playing her role as the victim.

A great psychological thriller, black comedy, and over-the-top camp classic is this great trashy melodrama.
