On his website Fantastic Movie Musings and Ramblings, Dave Sindelar stated that the film had some interesting ideas and featured a good performance by Carradine, but was undone by the lack of humor, and uninteresting romantic sub-plot.[3] Dennis Schwartz from Ozus' World Movie Reviews awarded the film a grade B−, calling it "A goofy but entertaining 'mad scientist' cult film".[4] TV Guide gave the film one out of four stars, pointing out Carradine's performance as the film's only worthwhile aspect.[5]
