 At times watchably silly and brainless; this is still one lame and quite laughable flick that despite being nothing if a weak made-for-video loser that actually went to theatres. ... Director Morneau vainly tries to build suspense with quick cuts and weird angles, but it's all for naught. Nah.  -- (TheVideoGraveYard.com)
The dialogue is crisp enough, Lou Diamond Phillips gives a performance that's better than the material deserves, and the film comes to a rousing finale, but Bats is just basically pretty dumb.  --Jack Witzig Atmosphere (ColdSpot)
