Reviews from Letterboxd:

1. katiemccourt – ★★★☆☆
   “A pretty awesome mix of a computer nerd revenge movie and a satanic cult film. Some of the gore effects are seriously impressive!”

2. soreviewer – ★★★☆☆
   “Stanley Coopersmith is a classic underdog and it’s hard not to root for him. A bizarre and entertaining movie with a great climax.”

3. cinemabro – ★★★½☆
   “An absolutely ridiculous but highly enjoyable horror flick. Clint Howard is perfectly cast and the last 20 minutes are pure chaos.”

4. ReyesBoo – ★★★☆☆
   “Definitely a product of its time but that’s part of its charm. The computer stuff is hilariously dated but the gore still hits hard.”

5. gutsthatwontrattle – ★★★☆☆
   “A computer-savvy Satanist revenge story set in a military academy? Sign me up. Wish there had been even more over-the-top moments.”
