3.5/5
"Imagine a campfire story told by Jack London after downing a bottle of Jack Daniels. The chilly atmosphere would be in full force but the plotting might be a bit punch drunk."  CinemaBlend.com  Brian Holcomb

B-
"Wind Chill deserves a merit badge for even trying to tell a horror story without resorting to tired and amateurish shock value. The picture's puzzle might not piece together properly, but the effort is appreciated."  eFilmCritic.com  Brian Orndorf

"Wind Chill doesn't advance the mechanics of the horror genre, but it gives audiences fed up with the Michael Bay School of Horror something of a breather."  Los Angeles Times  Ed Gonzalez

D
"All surface and no depth, with an incongruous ending that makes for an unsatisfying ending to an indecisive movie."  FilmJerk.com  Edward Havens

D
"Obviously meant to chill us to the bone, but it barely registers on the cinematic thermometer."  One Guy's Opinion  Frank Swietek

2/5
"Though the oblique and confused storytelling saps the heat out of Wind Chill, the picture still boasts a game performance from Emily Blunt"  Boxoffice Magazine  Jay Antani

2/4
"Despite its failings, Wind Chill represents a road rarely taken by 21st-century American horror films: Original (in the non-remake sense of the term), subtle and restrained."  TV Guide's Movie Guide  Maitland McDonagh

2/4
"Could have worked, if only I had given a damn."  Mark Reviews Movies  Mark Dujsik

3.5/5
"At the very least, it's an old-fashioned ghost story with half a brain -- and that's got to be worth more than a casual glance."  FEARnet  Scott Weinberg

2/4
"Wind Chill suffers from an underdeveloped screenplay, which feels like a first draft, erroneously deemed ready for production."  Reel.com  Timothy Knight
