There, they find Esther, a young girl who seems innocent, but she brings destruction to her new family.
Industry Reviews
3 stars out of 5 -- "To pull all the operatics off, producers have wisely cast solid pros Sarsgaard and Farmiga, who bring real dimension to a couple reeling from one tragedy and about to experience another....The real find is young Fuhrman..."
Box Office - Pete Hammond (07/23/2009)
3.5 stars out of 4 -- "[A] shamelessly effective horror film based on the most diabolical of movie malefactors, a child."
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (07/23/2009)
"[I]t's a cut above most spooky-kid movies, with a twist that sets it apart....The plot unfolds with a palpable sense of tension."
USA Today - Claudia Puig (07/24/2009)
"ORPHAN would never work as the thrillingly wicked indulgence it is without the psycho intensity of Fuhrman. She's boosted by Saarsgard and Farmiga..."
Movieline - Melissa Anderson (07/23/2009)
"[I]t's the uproarious twist that will land this one in the horror hall of fame/shame."
Total Film - Ken McIntyre (08/04/2009)
