Love this movie masterfully done. You feel like the main character because you are putting the clues together at the same time.

Major creepy vibes. There’s nothing like mid 2000s thrillers.

As someone stated, The Skeleton Key is a good sleepover movie, featuring fun ideas, poor cultural assumptions and mediocre execution.

This movie had the bed plot twist I have ever seen. It definetly had you guessing at every second, I highly recommend watching.

It's a thriller, not a horror. Good plot, excellent acting, surprising twist at the end. And a pinch of dark humor :)
