- Horror’s goal is simply delivering fun. The thrill of constant frights releases rollercoaster-level endorphins the fans can’t get enough of the rush. Blood Fest shoves it right in our faces and then some. Get ready to bleed.
- 67Austin ChronicleAustin ChronicleDirected and written by Austin author and horror enthusiast Owen Egerton (who also stars as the mad filmmaker behind the fest and the blood), the film doesn’t come without its setbacks. It’s a formulaic meta-horror movie that for most of its run time tries too hard, but there’s a sincerity about the movie that keeps it zipping along.

- 50Los Angeles TimesGeoff BerkshireLos Angeles TimesGeoff BerkshireThe ensuing abundant gore is simultaneously gleeful and nonsensical as the filmmakers rope in so many monsters — from seductive vampires to routine zombies to killer clowns — the entire movie becomes literal overkill.
- 30The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThe Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckAttempts scares and yucks in equal measure and fails to deliver either.
