Like Frankenstein's monster before the lightning strikes, it's all recycled cold flesh and bolts, without a twitch of originality.

Manages somehow to be rather endearing.

RTLos Angeles TimesFeb 14, 2001

A low-voltage drive-in movie, made strictly by the book.

This has all the hallmarks of a 1990s teen horror that will appeal to fans, and the urban legend angle adds even more familiarity, but there are also stereotypes and missed opportunities here.
