The Globe and Mail (Toronto)
A delirious, disgusting and delightfully dark concoction, this low-budget movie is the latest throwback creation from Steven Kostanski (Manborg, The Void), whose artistic vision seems perma-stuck in the sugary-cereal haze of a Saturday morning circa 1989. - 85
Paste Magazine
Psycho Goreman is a necessary explosion of ridiculous fun in a time when it’s needed most. Fans of practical effects and over-the-top horror-comedy will instantly fall in love. - 80
IGN
PG: Psycho Goreman is campy, ridiculous, and low-budget, and it absolutely owns it. - 75
Original-Cin
With winks at the cheesiness of a previous generation’s entertainment and a razzberry directed at contemporary blockbusters with a thousand times its minuscule budget, Psycho Goreman is an entertaining exercise in low-tech sci-fi camp. - 70
Variety
As satire, Psycho Goreman is no “Planet Terror,” but it’s a droll enough schlock-in-quote-marks diversion, and part of its appeal is just how damn cheap it is. In the omni-tech era, it’s fun to see a filmmaker build an FX fantasy out of scraps, from the ground up. - 67
Austin Chronicle
Will good triumph over evil? Who cares, when there's this much chaotic creature fun to be had. - 63
Movie Nation
Yes, it gets gassed about a half hour in, with things not picking up much until the Big Finale. But those who like this sort of thing — horror played for laughs, a cult-movie by design — will surely find this the sort of thing they like. - 58
The Film Stage
By never attempting to give anyone on-screen a path towards redemption, Kostanski keeps things entertaining.
