"This is unlike any other horror movie I've seen. It is less focused on violence, and instead really develops its story around the characters. It still has its fair share of gore, but it is more of a drama than your typical horror flick. I thought the movie was great, as did many others, as The Hamiltons won the Santa Barbara Film Festival, the Malibu Film Festival, SF Indie Fest and was selected for several more festivals. If you don't have tickets for "8 Films to Die For" yet this weekend I recommend hurrying up and seeing this movie." I saw this in new york and i think the rest of the audience really got a scare out of the film too. I definitely saw a number of people jump and grab the person next to them.
"The Hamiltons refuses to play by most of the genre rules, and is best experienced as a ghoulish comedic take on the post-modern American family, in which the chain of command is up for grabs. Midnight slots at fests and specialty cinemas are a no-brainer, and vid should spill some blood." Robert Koehler, Variety.com
