Reception

Chase Hutchinson of Collider rated the film an "A".[2] Sharai Bohannon of Dread Central rated the film 3.5 stars out of 5, writing, "It’s a fine film that provides a couple of laughs and plays on that mistrust of our neighbors that most of us have. It flirts with a few different genres before deciding to keep it light."[3] The film received positive reviews in ScreenAnarchy and Screen International.[4][5]
