Critical reception
The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "A paltry and nasty sexual fantasy which looks as though it has been dreamed up for the entertainment of impotent sadists. ... Attempting some kind of balance between jokiness and titillation, Shonteff effectively stifles both. The feeble jokes and tricks fail to camouflage the dominant motif: knives penetrate, blood gushes, heads roll. And to crown it all, particularly inane use is made of a cod Chandler narration."
