Reception[edit]
Sharai Bohannon of Dread Central wrote," I think there is a lot of really great stuff in the top half of this script. I just wish that it had carried over more and found a way to coexist with what we got. Also, I think the uneven acting draws attention to some of the design elements that possibly hinder the story from getting the tension it deserves. As messy as it was, I’m happy I saw it. Also, very happy Mo’Nique gave me a character I have longed to see."[2]
