Reception

Shock Cinema said the film was "Chock full of surprises and shocks, which include attempted child suffocation, bloody shotgun wounds, a broken glass bottle groin-stabbing, and a great knock-out surprise ending, with Danning giving a strong and sympathetic performance to add to the film’s viewing pleasure."[6]
