Michael Rechtshaffen · The Hollywood Reporter 70.00/100.00

An elegantly mounted ghost story that's steeped plenty of dank Louisiana atmosphere.

"失去老人 照顾老人 成为老人"

Ann Hornaday · Washington Post 70.00/100.00

The appeal of The Skeleton Key lies not in its plot but in its attention to detail, and the way director Iain Softley (still on probation for "K-PAX," but nevertheless the guy who did "Backbeat") luxuriates in the deeply textured sights and sounds of Louisiana.
