Reception

A reviewer for Consequence remarked that the film delivered the cheap look, dumb jokes and gross-out imagery which appeals to those with the taste of teenagers and for which Troma is known.^[1] A reviewer for Dread Central said that the film provided horrible puns, disgusting gags and family fun.^[2]
