On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 45% of 11 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 5.7/10.[7]
Julian Roman of MovieWeb gave the film a rating of 3 out of 5 and wrote; Cult Killer is fervently gripping and even impressively appalling despite a major flaw. There's little backbone to flimsy investigative elements.[8]
Giving the film a rating of 1.5 out of 4 Roger Moore of Movie Nation is unsatisfied and he wrote; A most peculiar Irish spree-killer thriller about the trauma of abuse, the monstrous sins of the super rich and some bizarre quirks of the Irish criminal justice system that one suspects are just clumsy inventions of the screenwriter.[9]
Brian Orndorf of Blu-ray.com gave the film a rating of 6 out of 10 and wrote; Thespian commitment is much better than the B-movie deserves at times, and it’s a good reason to stick with “Cult Killer,” which is absolutely disturbing, but kept in play by interesting acting.[10]
