Vacancy may be trying to bridge both worlds, but it ends up straddling the fence.
David Fear, Time Out New York
Rotten
Vacancy, in the end, simply offers a particularly aggressive brand of couples counseling.
Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer

It's welcome to see another movie that relies more on apprehension and suspense than torture chambers. Vacancy might not get Mr. Hitchcock smiling from above. But he won't be spinning in his grave, either.

Packs a lot of old-fashioned shocks into its taut 80-minute running time.
