The original cut of the film was felt to be not scary enough so at the behest of Roger Corman additional scenes were shot using a demon. According to Imagi Movies "The addition is laughably obvious, for two reasons: first the demon never appears ‘on the sets where the original footage was shot; second, the new scenes were done on video tape and run through the “film-look” process, with less than good results."[2]
Senseless Pictures called it "small but underrated."[3]
Psychotronic Video said "Attention fans of Grotesque. Tomatore is back with more inept but entertaining nonsense."[1]
The Roanoke Times called it "fun if you're on the mood for a really bad movie. Otherwise forget it."[4] In a review for the Orlando Sentinel, Joe Bob Briggs wrote "not since Plan 9 from Outer Space have this many earnest authors been this sincerely awful."[5]
