- The online film database gives the film an overall grade of 7.13 points.
“Often the story is a bit confused due to the many flashbacks, but this semi-professional film by Olaf Ittenbach is still more than enjoyable and, above all, very, very bloody. [...] Actually, the film here is more of a pitch-black splatter comedy with some slapstick interludes ”
