Reception Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 71 out of 100, based on 4 critics, indicating "generally favorable" reviews.
Brian Tallerico of RogerEbert.com gave the film a score of three out of four stars; he compared it favorably to the works of John Carpenter or Wes Craven, praising its cinematography and Torres's performance. IndieWires Alison Foreman gave the film a grade of "B–", likening it to the American films Drag Me to Hell (2009) and Nightcrawler (2014), and writing that, "its skin-crawling presentation (you will feel, smell, and even taste a few scenes) and uniquely perverse consideration of a terrifying concept make it worth seeing."
