Critics Consensus

Sting should satisfy horror fans in the mood for a creature feature, even if the end results likely won't linger in the memory.

Irish Times

All in all, a diverting entertainment that, unlike so much contemporary horror, is prepared to have a good time. Fun for all the family. Well, all the family over 16.

Rated: 3/5

Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube)

It's goofy and fun, [but] it isn't particularly scary... unless you're particularly scared of spiders.

Observer (UK)

Efficiently contained and creepy, the picture loses a little of its gruesome potency when it ventures into heartfelt family relationship territory.

Rated: 3/5

Sting isn’t going to blow anybody away, but it’s got enough legs to deliver a satisfying creature feature with surprisingly strong visual effects. The monster is on full-display and it’s design and depiction are equally terrifying.

Rated: 7/10

It would be easy to dismiss the film as just another piece of anti-spider propaganda if it wasn’t such a fun, effective, tightly wound creature feature...

I found Sting to be entertaining. I didn’t get too excited before seeing it, but I actually enjoyed it. It had what I thought were funny parts and yet still spooky. It wasn’t my favorite horror/scary movie, but it definitely kept my interest. During some movies, I get so bored, I end up on my cell and then wonder what happened in the movie, after it’s over. Not this time. I’d recommend, if you are in the mood for a little spook
