Reception
Commonsensemedia panned the film, writing "Tedious, awful horror-comedy for kids is unwatchable."
'Starpulse' tried to be more upbeat, stating that they enjoyed the film despite it appearing to be "set up for failure" and that "Whether its the out of nowhere animated introductions of the cavalcade of creatures, the presence of icons like Malcolm McDowell, Lance Henriksen and especially the ever-underused and scene-stealing Richard Moll, or just the sheer laughs that come out of obtuse situations and embarrassing dialogue, theres an engaging quality to the film that cant just be ignored."
