Bobby LePire at Film Threat said that while the beginning is off-putting, they scored it 8 out of 10 saying that the "uniformly solid cast, effective cinematography, and editing all contribute to its success in communicating its horror and comedy elements."[4] Jason Knight at UK Film Review scored it 3 out of 5, claiming it is for those that "appreciate dark humour, intriguing characters and gore."[5] Kirk Fernwood said it is 3.5 out of 5, stating it is "a blunt force exercise in straight-up insanity paired with legitimately valid statements about the state of our current society."[6] Mark Lakatos scored it 3 out of 5 and said that the "unique visuals and chilling atmosphere make for a solid dose of psychological horror."[7] Stephanie Malone at Morbidly Beautiful compared the character Jordan to Patrick Bateman. They said the film does have its flaws, but scored it 3 out of 5 claiming it is a "smart and satisfyingly sinister film" that is "worthy of an audience."[2] Razooky was nominated for Best Actress at the San Diego Film Awards in 2020.[3]
