In the history of cheap gore films, "The Mind's Eye" is just another blip on the bloody screen.
Tom Long, Detroit News

Begos opens "The Mind's Eye" with the words, "This film should be played loud," as though his movie were a rock song - which is actually a fair analogy for a simplistic throwback homage that's all hook and no sophistication.
Noel Murray, Los Angeles Times

"...many practical gore effects should keep your eyes either riveted to or permanently averted from the screen (the former in my case, all the way)."
Luke Y. Thompson, Village Voice

The Mind's Eye is really fun to watch.
