May be pure trash, but it's trash made with the kind of oozy psychedelic zest that powered a movie like A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors.

Rotten
A mangy and ungainly movie, a cluttered and uncreepy assembly of stale cliches, telegraphed scares and low-rent effects.
Geoff Pevere, Toronto Star
Rotten
A grotesquely uneven schlockfest with large doses of bad writing and bad acting amid the delicious moments.
Andrew O'Hehir, Salon.com
Rotten
Splits the difference between horror and social commentary, with pallid returns.
Ed Park, Village Voice
Fresh
Made with sufficient skill to produce a few shivers. Just as important, it contains enough self-mocking humor to earn a few laughs.
Joe Leydon, Variety
