| | Hollywood Gothique: Hide and Seek (2005) Review |
 | | This mechanical construction robs HIDE AND SEEK of any genuine impact, reminding us once again that the surprise ending of Hitchcock's PSYCHO works because, in retrospect, it is integral to the story. |
 | | With its slick production values and solid cast, HIDE AND SEEK cannot help generating a few scares, but by the end the misguided story-telling has undermined any attempt to create a solid, serious thriller. |
 | | The widescreen DVD includes a making-of featurette; four alternate endings; several deleted scenes; three comparisons of storyboards to finished scenes; and audio commentary by director Polson, writer Schlossberg, and editor Jeffrey Ford, which plays under the film and the bonus material. |
