Reception
Bloody Disgusting says the movie is "A solid tension builder that gauges the limits of human desperation over morality, and what bad things a good person may do without any other options."

Scaredstiffreviews.com says, "The pace is fast and the movie flew by quickly. It’s a little bit SAW and a little bit RANSOM, but it has its own unique spin and angle. The writing is where this movie really excels.
