Dread Central gave the film 3.5 out of 5 stars, going on to say "These days, in a 'been there, seen that' genre world where there seems to be very few surprises left for us fans, Mane and his co-writer Geerlings deliver a fantastic little supernatural revenge tale that should keep the indie genre fans out there pleased."
