Director Greg Lamberson stated that the film "is a movie for fans of practical effects, although we'll use CGI to enhance what we shot on set. Our DP, Chris Rados, had to do a lot of shooting behind plexiglass".

Amy Seidman of ComingSoon.net called the film "a fun, no-brainer kind of flick". Scott Hallam of the website Dread Central wrote that "you have to overlook a lot of the low-budget pitfalls that often haunt a film like this, but its indeed worth looking past the blemishes of the movie to enjoy [its] humor and great spirit".
