The critics gave it a below-average rating of 45%

on Rotten Tomatoes’ Tomatometer.

from the previews. It has collected $5.2 million, [via Box Office Mojo] including previews, on Friday, its opening day at the North American box office. The film showcases the downgrade of the horror genre after some successful movies. However, with low production costs, the film can recoup its budget.
