The film opened in sixth place in German-speaking Switzerland on its opening weekend. Limmattaler Zeitung described the film as the first Swiss 3-D film. It wrote that the film follows familiar horror conventions, and praised the cast, especially Sabrina Reiter, but criticised the later violence as too explicit and too bloody after the earlier suspense. Kino-Zeit wrote that the film was atmospheric but offered little that was new apart from its 3D effects. The review also criticised its slow pacing and said the characters remained one-dimensional. OutNow wrote that the film became fairly watchable in its second half, and praised Sabrina Reiter and the filmâÂÂs setting, but criticised the dialogue and the 3D effects.
The film premiered in 2011. It was later screened at festivals including the Solothurn Film Festival, the Filmfestival Max Ophüls Preis in Saarbrücken, and the Brussels International Fantastic Film Festival in 2012, and the Nocturna Madrid International Fantastic Film Festival in 2013.
