Noel Murray Los Angeles Times Clumsy and corny, the film plays like a pat showbiz cautionary tale, half-heartedly reworked into lurid pulp. Oct 18, 2018 Full Review Dennis Harvey Variety Short on thrills and energy despite its title, this slick yet sluggish feature often seems barely interested in the horror elements that are, after all, what will primarily lure viewers in. Oct 18, 2018 Full Review Katie Hogan VultureHound Sold on the fact that David Arquette and Luke Wilson star, the latter is in three scenes and makes little to no impact to the story or film. Rated: 2/5 Feb 3, 2020 Full Review Amy Glynn Paste Magazine This film might actually turn you into a brain-nomming zombie, or something you'd find stuck to the bottom of your Smokey Joe. The script alone could fry your circuits. Rated: 1.5/10 Nov 21, 2018 Full Review Aaron Peterson The Hollywood Outsider A wink of a performance from David Arquette and an electric turn from Allie Gonino overcome a few distracting special effects to deliver a clever rock 'n roll thriller. Rated: 6/10 Nov 21, 2018 Full Review Chuck Foster Film Threat An interesting blend of dramatic scenes and supposed archival footage makes for a quasi-documentarian approach along the lines of Behind the Music or, more to the point, Paranormal Witness. A music video interlude proves his eye exceeds most others. Rated: 9/10 Oct 22, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Sorry to say, but this lifeless film is quite awful, filled with terribly stilted and flat dialogue and ridiculous plot elements. Below even B-movie quality, so save your time and money and avoid. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member So, she used to be a timid little girl trying to front for a band (led by washed up Arquette) UNTIL she gets hit by lighting. Somehow - she miraculously comes back to life and sucks peoples faces to death in order to become a rock superstar. Hey - Arquette and Wilson - did you read the script? Cause it was bunk. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Dreadful, david Arquette and Luke Wilson must've been realllly short on cash to sign on for this abomination Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Read all reviews
