 Wan proves his ability to terrify an audience as well.
Sean Clark
Dread Central
Overall I left the film very happy with what I had just seen and actually looking forward to seeing it again.
 Those who find dolls, dummies and marionettes the pinnacle of all things horrifying will probably dig the movie even more than I did
Scott Weinberg
Cinematical
If you're in the mood for a Saturday afternoon-ish throwback thriller, you could certainly do a hell of a lot worse than this one.
'Dead Silence' delivers goosebumps
Colin Covert
Minneapolis Star Tribune
A gothic chiller in which morbid atmospherics and simmering suspense build to an ingenious third-act climax.
Slower-paced ghost story
Brian Tallerico
UnderGround Online
The villain in Dead Silence isn't nearly as creative as Jigsaw, but, to be fair, she died decades ago and she's still raising hell... After the breakneck terror fans experienced with the Saw movies, are they ready for a slower-paced ghost story or will the silence put them to sleep?
