The film was released in theaters and on video-on-demand on January 18, 2019.[3][4] The film grossed an estimated $12,047 at the box office.[5]
The film received generally negative reviews from critics, with criticism focusing on the film's plot and on Christensen's performance as Kurt.[6][7] Christy Lemire of RogerEbert.com gave it thumbs down, saying that the film was "a thoroughly unpleasant experience from start to finish, and not even in an artful way."[8]
Noel Murray of LA Times criticized Christensen's performance and the script, while praising the film's gloomy ambience. He said that "the individual scenes feel disconnected and incomplete, stitched together by rambling, discombobulated dialogue that even the actors don’t seem to understand. The premise is effectively eerie; the presentation depressingly sloppy."[9]
