Critic Reviews for The Monkey's Paw

All Critics (4) | Fresh (1) | Rotten (3)

Making a film difficult to see is not a substitution for creating a heavy atmosphere, unfortunately. But fortunately the truly excellent performances and the decently appropriate soundtrack keep you interested through most of the running time.

...scripter Macon Blair instead opts for an almost astonishingly generic approach that rarely (if ever) exploits the larger-than-life premise to satisfactory effect.

There's so much padding and filler here, you could cut it down to fifty minutes without missing much.

Cinema Crazed
It's got some good horror elements and strong performances, but it needed more development of the characters to reach its fullest potential for scares.
