Reviews for the film were fiercely divided. Publications like Fangoria praised the remake for being "just as raw and upsetting in its onscreen brutality as the original" and noted its superior acting. Others, like critic Roger Ebert, gave the film zero stars and famously called the original a "vile bag of garbage," solidifying its status as a cinematic lightning rod.
