3/5

Nice performances from Shearsmith and Serkis, and some outrageous ketchupy grossout, though I have to say The Cottage has nothing like the rigour, originality or power of Williams's debut.

4/5

The Cottage is a film that knows how to play to its strengths, namely making the most of its modest budget and not even attempting to break the B-movie glass ceiling.

1.5/4

'The Cottage' doesn't have enough horror to satisfy horror fans and not enough comedy to satisfy everybody else.

3/4

The degree to which the movie is redeemed by its impossible-to-anticipate third act is consequently quite staggering...

Its a comedy, not a horror. Stupid funnt thats more irritating than funny. Horrible.

It's nice to actually see Andy Serkis' face! This film has the sort of comedic ho-hum pace/soundtrack/dialogue of a family holiday comedy--but with a side of deranged redneck killer.

Tiene unas partes divertidas, no me esperaba que al final todos murieran. Es de horror-humor.

A funny screwball dark comedy gore horror. Even from the opening titles you know this whole movie is going to be a campy joke...the best kind of B horror. Wonderful subversion of expectation. Small budget, nothing big or fancy, just great writing, acting, camera work, and music. Quite entertaining.
