Reception

The Spinning Image gave the film 3 stars and concluded it was "a bizarre but oddly compelling movie."[3] The film has also been described as a "Hokey action film about two teenage girls who, as children, accidentally" made a gruesome discovery.[9] It addresses the topic of cannibalism.[10][11] A review at Dread Central was very dismissive: "It’s joyless, soulless, and abysmal. The only good time to be found here is had by making fun of the late Eighties fashion, but even that cannot sustain for ninety minutes."[12]
