Triple the length of its cable television inspiration, Tales From the Crypt Presents Bordello of Blood is triple the gore, triple the naked women, but not, alas, triple the fun.
Richard Harrington, Washington Post
Fresh
What it lacks in irony and suspense, Gilbert Adler's Tales From the Crypt Presents Bordello of Blood makes up for in whimsy and cheeky self-assurance.
Jack Mathews, Los Angeles Times
Rotten
This gory vampire spoof is remarkably free of jolts, hardly registering as a fright film, with a series of weak special effects involving many globs of guts.
Peter Stack, San Francisco Chronicle

Vampires aren't the only things in Bordello of Blood that can't stand up to daylight. Neither can the plot.
Lawrence Van Gelder, New York Times
