Reception
'Weird Wild Realm' gave the movie a mixed review, praising Madsen and Hauer's performances and concluding: "Lying in Wait falls halfway between a conventional thriller & an arthouse film. As a low-budget straight-to-video feature it's no great shakes but it has an attractive cast. Madsen is sexy as they get in her role. Hauer's performance in such quick moments when his gaze switches from lackluster half-consciousness, to sharp knowing glance, is startling throughout". 'Film Totaal' gave the film a 5,9 score.
