ReviewsEmpire - Check behind the doors. Switch on all the lights. You won't be sleeping soundly for a while., Time Out New York - The mostly dialogue-free middle section is a scare-film master class - and when a becalmed smile does finally cross his lips, it's in the most giddily mordant of circumstances. As Arthur embraces the darkness, so does the darkness embrace us., Hollywood Reporter - "No Country for Young Kids" would be just as suitable a title for THE WOMAN IN BLACK, a hoot of an old-fashioned British horror film., Charlotte Observer - In rare cases û and THE WOMAN IN BLACK is one of them û a story may be more atmospheric when less is left to the imagination.
