Reception and legacy
Drive-in film critic Joe Bob Briggs called it "a pretty much by-the-numbers, micro-budget effort".[3] Jerry White of Beyond Hollywood wrote that the film is enjoyably bad, as many scenes are unintentionally funny.[4] Daniel Benson of HorrorTalk rated it 2/5 stars and wrote that the film's special effects can not overcome the other faults, including poor writing and acting.[2] Writing in The Zombie Movie Encyclopedia, academic Peter Dendle said, "The filmmakers exploit the limited location as best they can" but "there's little build-up of tension".[5]
As an outgrowth of Biohazardous, Hein founded the New York City Horror Film Festival.[6]
