Reviews
The reviews for the film were mostly negative.
“Director Crispian Mills cannot decide where the accents of his story should be. His debut work has far too little humor for a comedy, it's not scary enough for a horror film and it lacks substance for a psychological character study. "
"Crispian Mills and Chris Hopewell's" The Terrible Fear of the Terrible "is unfortunately one of those films with Simon Pegg that are among his weaker ones. The story is extremely lengthy, especially at the beginning, the humor is only conditionally witty and sometimes too much calibrated to British clichés, so that not every German will understand them.
