Reception

Jon Condit from Dread Central panned the film, awarding it a score of one out of five. In his review, Condit criticized the film's lack of originality, weak characters, and slow pacing; calling it "a thoroughly dull demonic monster in a prison flick almost completely devoid of energy or imagination."[2]
