Neil Genzlinger of The New York Times :
Not that it's a bad movie, particularly; it has all the necessary gore and beasties and gratuitous nudity that this not-very-demanding genre demands... None of this is very scary, but William M. Miller's cinematography and those big-name cameos keep it interesting. [2]
From TV Guide:
While neither especially chilling nor particularly unpredictable, van den Houten's debut, scripted by Steve Klausner from a story by Troy McCombs and William M. Miller, aspires to little more than the usual stalk-and-slash clichés, it features a number of nice touches, including a knowing nod to H. P. Lovecraft's classic short story Pickman's Model and a slew of familiar faces in small roles, such as Udo Kier as a spooky priest and Dee Wallace-Stone and William Atherton as baffled doctors. [3]
