Reaction: Normally $90 million would be a decent box office gross for a horror film, but the cast of this one, featuring two Best Actress GRA winners, was obviously expensive.
"The opening sequence is one of the best all season. While the rest of the film doesn't quite live up to the that sequence, it still manages to stay interesting throughout thanks to a solid cast and a unique set-up." - Gillian Donaldson, Variety
"Escape the Unknown starts off so strong, but it goes slowly (And then rapidly) down hill from there. The story gets more and more preposterous as it goes along and the supernatural elements feel like they were lifted from a different story altogether." - Stan Kyle, Omaha World-Herald
"Escape the Unknown is a very odd genre mix, but I found the combination of genre elements to be pretty entertaining. It doesn't always work in a coherent fashion, but it is still fun." - Shawn Moseby, Fresno Bee
