Hell Fest's reviews
Media reviews
El País
Gregory Plotkin rescues the spirit of Hooper's 'House of Horrors'. 'Hell Fest' is a film that could have played much more imaginatively with the contrast between stiffened artifice and real terror.
Fotogramas
Bad acting and bad directing. It is more of one of the cloned current ways of approaching the genre made in the more routine Blumhouse than a return to the party.
Roger Ebert
It?s the closest you can subject people to a horror potluck without being 'The Cabin in the Woods'. So why can?t the six writers of this story have more fun with this premise?
Variety
Eye candy without much to offer the brain or emotions, 'Hell Fest' is a competently crafted slasher film rendered instantly forgettable by its disinterest in character, plot, and motivation, let alone original ideas.
The Wrap
It?s in love with its location and couldn?t care less about the characters. Even the kills are rote disappointments, at least by slasher-enthusiast standards.
The Hollywood Reporter
You've seen it all before, and better: A blade to the chest, an axe to the leg, a syringe to the eye.
