The intense and eerie atmosphere made me feel decidedly uneasy with some very effective creature costume and makeup effects that, when coupled with the frantic camera work and claustrophobic sets, had me nervously smiling in the pit of my stomach. 7/10--Vaughan Dyche (thefilmasylum.com)
A decent watch for a low-budget direct-to-video flick. Rips off a few things, but overall an original flick compared to most other DTVs. 6/10-- (UHM)
While this is a bit thin on plot, the acting is only so-so (with some suspect dubbing) and a pace that at times feels a bit leisurely this is still one pretty rockin' little effort that slings enough gore (including a kick-ass "under the bed" sequence and one really brutal disembowlment scene), has a constantly nightmarish tone (this is one eerie movie, man!) and a last third that's filled with shocks, decent chases and lots of blood.  -- (TheVideoGraveYard.com)

If you appreciate low-budget efforts, and directorial debuts, 13 Seconds will shock you; it will leave you lying on the floor staring at the ceiling wondering what in gods name hit you.  --Mr Disgusting (Bloody-Disgusting.com)
