Reception

John Squires of Bloody Disgusting referred to the film as an example of a "best worst movie", and wrote that it is "home to all the terrible acting and weird storytelling choices that make bad movies so much fun to watch. This movie has it all, and it’s highlighted by surprisingly good creature effects that outshine absolutely everything else on display in it."[1] Matt Hudson of HorrorNews.net gave the film a negative review, criticizing the film's low budget, acting, and script.[2]
