Reception
In a retrospective review, Christopher Forsley of PopMatters stated that "the entire film [...] is unfocused". Forsley discussed the female characters in the film, stating that "every female character [...] no matter her age, faces a sustained threat of sexual assault. As demented as that sounds, it's through this unrelenting threat that Bergonzelli's uniquely perverted voice is heard and the film is almost redeemed for its many failures."
