Quirky would be a good word with which to describe this little gem. Quirky cast, quirky script, quirky settings...which is probably why the "normal" ending felt awkwardly out of place. Still, it didn't ruin an otherwise excellent movie.

Liked the idea and humour, but the ending wasn't good.

Much enjoyed. Based on the description I was expecting more traditional exorcists, but that's hardly the case. Certainly worth a look.

When it starts, it almost seems like an attempt to cross Pulp Fiction with Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, but it quickly grows into its own entity with a unique brand of humor. Cinematography is beautiful and the ending is perfect. I look forward to Nick Whitfield's career.

Brilliant mix of comedy and originality, even powerful toward the end. So clear and precise in the delivery with plenty of odd quirks to keep the interest high.

You known when a film opens with the two leads discussing the moral merits and ambiguity of Rasputin v's the Kennedy's that you're in for a treat! Two soild lead performances and an excellent support performance from Jason Isaacs ensure that "Skeletons" was probably the best British film of 2010 behind "Four Lions". Whitfield's excellent direction and script deserve credit too, and succeeds in playing with the supernatural in an orginal, whimsical and intelligent way. Recommended.

Quirky but not particularly satisfying on any level. Casting was ok, music interesting, locations not great. The concept could have worked but the memory stones thing felt cheap and gimimcky. The writing tried too hard to make itself mysterious. All in all, some things worked but not at the same time. A hit and miss affair.

The finest debut from a british director I've seen in years. The script is fresh, moving and funny; the film has a coherent look all of its own and the cast of unknowns are uniformly excellent. More please Nick Whitfield!
