Critical reception

Dread Central, “Ultimately, Bloody Muscle Body Builder in Hell isn’t essential viewing, but it’s a breezy good time while it lasts, and the fun that was had behind the camera is more than reflected on screen.” [4]

Bloody Disgusting, “What initially appealed to me about The Evil Dead is how Raimi and company's scrappy, do-it-yourself ethic translates on screen. Beyond being an effective horror movie, it feels like it was made by a group of friends for fun rather than commerce. Bloody Muscle Body Builder in Hell embodies that same spirit, albeit with even more limited means. It may have taken decades to be properly released, but I'm grateful Fukazawa never gave up on it.
