Variety
Rob Nelson
This softcore thriller runs strictly by the numbers.
50
Boston Globe
Chelsea Bain
Molly Hartley is dull at worst and surprisingly spooky at best.
50
The New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
Tame and inoffensive, The Haunting of Molly Hartley is no more than a big-screen lasso for the "Gossip Girl" and "Supernatural" demographic.
42
Entertainment Weekly
Adam Markovitz
The story's a snooze, so the filmmakers punch it up with smash cuts and thunderclaps that turn the most laughably banal items -- birds, mail, an alarm clock -- into cheap jack-in-the-box shocks.
40
Los Angeles Times
Sam Adams
A dead-on-arrival thriller that resolutely fails to come to life.
38
TV Guide
Jason Buchanan
Horror of the glossiest, safest kind. It's a boring bubblegum shocker that loses its flavor faster than Fruit Stripes.
33
The Onion (A.V. Club)
Keith Phipps
It's a horror film better suited for skittish cats than humans.
30
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
Playing somewhat like a juvenile version of "Rosemary's Baby," this inept, incoherent attempt to cash in on young girls who can't buy a ticket to the R-rated "Saw V" (or are too lazy to sneak in) will be out of theaters long before the Halloween pumpkins start to rot.
11
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
The real shocker is how hellishly yawn-inducing this utterly pointless and forgettable Haunting turns out to be. It's enough to make you scream.

LA Weekly
Luke Y. Thompson
From Freestyle Releasing, the self-service distributor that brought you "D-War" and "In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale," comes a movie even worse than those two combined.
