Reception[edit]

Tori Danielle of PopHorror wrote, "Everything worked together perfectly creating something unique and special."[1]

Ard Vijn of ScreenAnarchy wrote that the film is "well-made torture horror, but not much else besides."[2]

Simon Abrams of RogerEbert.com rated the film 1 star out of 4 and called the film a "nasty endurance test, the sort of calling card genre exercise whose relentless extremity—both in terms of its explicit and psychological violence—often seems to be a goal unto itself."[3]
