reception
TV-Spielfilm writes of a "hackneyed plot", but in the end it comes to a positive conclusion, since "the whole thing pulls [one] more and more under its spell".
Mario Rössel writes that the film relies "on the atmosphere and the imagination of the audience" and "plays well with the fears of the audience". He also praises the performance of the leading actress Laura Regan. On the negative side, he notes that the film is partly predictable and nothing new for fans of the genre, and he also noticed some lengths in the plot.
