Globe and Mail

The film's structure is novel. A fact/fiction ambiguity works well, and genres are blended together like so much red dye and corn syrup.

Rated: 2.5/4

Grant's slippery presentation muddles his point - if he has one - but it's fun to guess at what's a put-on.

Fake Blood hardly distinguishes itself from the glut of mock-docs; it may be a refreshing break for the filmmakers, but viewers might prefer another zombie flick.

It's a twisted b-movie that makes a smart u-turn, turning the story inside out as the movie flips from asking questions to basking in danger.

Rated: 3/5

Cinema Crazed

The film is shot in a way that makes it interesting to watch with cinematography by Sarah Thomas Moffat and editing by Rob Grant.

Rated: 4.5/5

Undeniably original. Though you'll have to watch the entire film to appreciate that the earlier moments which may have felt a tad cliche & superficial were in fact deliberate in order to start establishing the foundation of what pays off entirely — but only when the whole thing has been seen will the film's layered narrative format & genuine intent come into total focus.
