A review at Horror Society stated, âÂÂThe story is bad and hard to follow.àNot because it is complicated, but because the film has a hard time actually following the plot.àThe film is vaguely a slasher film while trying to play on the psychological thriller angle.àFinally, the special effects are non-existent which makes the kill scenes horrible to watch.àIâÂÂve seen my fair share of low budget slashers and I have seen a lot better kills than what this one offers."
DVD TalkâÂÂs also quite negative review found the film "very unsatisfyingâÂÂ
