The Devil's Backbone Reviews |
The haunting in this story is always simmering just beneath the film's surface, though it is laid in the background to such a degree that it allows far more earthbound conflicts to progress. [read review] 88/100
--Jack Witzig (ColdSpot)
Del Toro pulls it off marvelously, crafting a film that is scary, supernatural and believable all at the same time. [read review]

A good original story. Expected more scares and a better ending, but still enjoyable and interesting. [read review] 8/10
--FrighT MasteR (UHM)
Many interesting plot twists and very dark and eerie imagery make it fun to watch as well. [read review]
