Reception
On Rotten Tomatoes, the film has an approval rating of 67%, based on 6 reviews. In his review of the film, Film Threat critic Terry Sherwood gave it a 7 out of 10 and said, it "treads the domestic horror/revenge territory of Takashi Miike's Audition (1999 film) and added that it's "quirky enough to fit next to the more extreme Asian and European offerings”. Anton Bitel of Projected Figures, stated that it “exposes the dark, divided soul of Hollywood”. Nerdly critic Phil Wheat gave it a 4 out of 5, calling it "an interesting twist on the genre that manages to leave the viewer feeling rather disturbed and uneasy despite occasionally stumbling over itself”.
