Film Threat -
The actual performances during the film range from excellent to somewhat amateurish, but this amateurism is easily absorbed by the sheer power of the imagery on display.

|
Variety -
Its own mythology aside, this flamboyant, graphic and disturbing quasi-docu reenactment of a notorious chapter in U.S. counterculture life is a fascinating if peculiar accomplishment.
|
|
Chicago Sun-Times -
This is not a "horror" film or an "underground" film, but an act of transgression so extreme and uncompromised, and yet so amateurish and sloppy, that it exists in a category of one film -- this film.

New York Post -
See it - if you dare.

|
Entertainment Weekly -
The film evokes how homicide became the ultimate orgasm for kids who had turned themselves into zombies of flesh.
