Marc Savlov

MBV 3D is full-on, old-school, Fangoria-approved, gorehound heaven – a supersaturated arterial goregasm with zero socially redeeming values for anyone other than first-year med students. Read full review

Premiere Jenni Miller

This is a fun midnight movie. Horror fans, get your friends together and go see some gore and some naked chicks in three dimensions. Read full review

Joe Leydon

At heart an unabashedly retro work, reveling in the cliches and conventions of the slasher horror pics that proliferated in the early 1980s. Read full review

Clark Collis

What really leaps out at you about My Bloody Valentine 3-D is its lack of imagination. Read full review

Scott Tobias

But save for a giddily gratuitous sequence involving full-frontal nudity, a little person, and a French bulldog, the film is strictly by-the-numbers slasher boilerplate. It won't endure past the weekend. Read full review

Mark Olsen

Wooden performances by forgettable, generic actors -- again, just like in the original -- don't aid in making things any less leaden. Perhaps this is the best one can hope for from something like My Bloody Valentine 3-D, that it be just good enough to not be annoying. Or in this specific case, physically painful. Read full review

Jim Ridley

There's no excitement or terror in watching the 3-D execution of 2-D actors giving 1-D performances, just the steadily diminishing returns of the same eye gouge delivered ad infinitum. Read full review

Great 3-D effect. Jensen Ackles plays a perfect little boy lost-psycho. Jamie King was a strong character. Kerr Smith playing an asshole I didn't know he could. TWO words Tom Atkins.

This movie was awesome, hands down. It was everything that it was suppose to be. There was no striving to be romance or thriller or anything.

It was everything that it was suppose to be. There was no striving to be romance or thriller or anything. It was just straight up horror/slasher, like it should be. The fact that this movie was in an intense three dimensions makes it even better! Lots of good jumps outta nowhere and plenty of gratuitous horror movie nudity. This movie is a must see for any horror fan.… Expand

An intentionally campy horror movie that intentionally mixes bad special effects with some writing and scenes that are there just to comically milk the 3d. If you get it, its fun. If you don't, you're Jim Ridley.

Plot holes and red herrings aplenty. The remake to the 1981 Canadian horror flick boasts great 3D effects, a good cast but a pretty terrible script (so many characters investigating strange noises). Overall not a bad remake but nothing to write home about.

Average remake of the excellent 1981 original slasher film. The kills are creative, and the change in the identity of the killer is a great addition. Otherwise, exploitation alley. The 3-D effects are stunning!
