V.A. Musetto

You just know something terrible is going to happen. But when it does, you're entirely unprepared Read full review

Jami Bernard

Due to budget constraints, the movie is necessarily rough around the edges. But directors Josh Apter and Peter Olsen have a sure grasp of how to maintain a mood that chills long after the movie is over. Read full review

Lawrence Van Gelder

Establishes its ominous mood and tension swiftly, and if the suspense never rises to a higher level, it is nevertheless maintained throughout. Read full review

Norman Short

There is a lot to like in Kaaterskill Falls. The characters are engaging and believable even when events stretch the envelope of realistic behavior. Read full review

Leslie Camhi

The filmmakers skillfully evoke the sense of menace that nature holds for many urban dwellers. -- Sometimes, though, the editing is choppy, and the film could use more of a script. Read full review
