It’s perfect for those nights when the air gets chilly, the moon hangs low, and there might just be a maybe-werewolf hanging around the California desert.

Joey Keogh

Wicked Horror

Shaky Shivers is goofy, silly, zany, and impossible to resist. In fact, what’s most charming about the film is just how confident Kang is in the material – enough to pop up in a hilariously unflattering cameo that truly has to be seen to be believed.

William Schwartz

Willamette Week

Unable to fully commit to being either a full-on parody or grounded in reality, Shaky Shivers delivers no real payoff, despite the chemistry of its cast.

Rated: 2/4

Paste Magazine

This cheap two-hander barrels through its bad jokes and horror tropes like it knows it won’t survive the night.

Rated: 2.9/10

Cinema Crazed

It plays the monsters and magic of its story for fun and while it’s humorous and a send-up of 1980s movies, it still feels current in a way.

Rated: 4/5

Kung has a tiny budget to bring “Shaky Shivers” to life, and the effort is aided by his leads, Markham and Nguyen, who deliver big charm and appealing enthusiasm for the material, which definitely needs their spirit.

Rated: B-

Unexpected, funny, and special. People who don't like this movie are the same folks who keep the Kardashians relevant - gross. The people are 'real' in a way I don't see very often in American movies.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Nothing interesting or unique happens the entire film, and the comedy and horror aspects are equally poorly executed. No plot to speak of and very little fun to be had.
