Reception
[edit]Scott Foy of Dread Central rated it 1.5/5 stars and called it "a cheap, dull, ugly-looking movie with ugly characters and a monster that remains uninspired despite the unsavory nature of this beast."[2] Adam Arseneau of DVD Verdict criticized the film's premise and execution as being of poor quality.[3] Adrian Halen of HorrorNews.net noted that the film had the look and feel of SyFy Channel original movie, with poor execution, and generic story.[4]
