Critics Consensus: Thriller has an appealing cast and a fresh perspective on its genre, but those elements aren't enough to outweigh a bland and predictable story.

Reviews

Chicago Reader

Atavia Reed

Jackson's, um, thrilling story often falls into the usual plot holes of classic horror tales... but the scare factor is often limited by the improbability of certain scenarios.

Like his writing, Jackson's direction is sterile, delivering tame, slasher-lite kills and matter-of-fact "thrills" with the aesthetic of an after-school special.

It's nothing we haven't seen before, plot-wise, but there are enough interesting performances and plot contortions to keep things interesting until the late-arriving mayhem hits the screen.

A worthy stab at the slasher genre, then, but with old-school slayers like Halloween's Michael Myers and Child's Play devil-doll Chucky still enjoying regular makeovers, the bogeyman bar remains too high for this underpowered effort.

A chintzy, laborious dud of a film.
