Critical response

Nick Schager of Slant Magazine gave the film two out of five stars, writing, "Neither scary nor sexy, The Devil’s Plaything at least affords ample opportunities to compare the differences between natural boobs and a set of early-generation silicon implants."[2]

gollark: All ye who have not raised 3 dragons from coast, raise 3 dragons from coast!
gollark: The prizeraffle™ is nigh!
gollark: Maybe 0s are explicitly not allowed at the start of codes for some reason; who knows. Maybe this is some weird statistical anomaly.
gollark: Okay, actually, that is weird.
gollark: Er, no.
