The Guardian
Crispian Mills directs with zip, throwing things together with a breathlessness that largely distracts from the fact that, for a horror-comedy, Slaughterhouse Rulez is neither particularly scary nor especially funny. But it does have an amiable sort of charm. - 40
Los Angeles Times
There’s nothing particularly awful about the film (title aside), but it never develops into the “Shaun of the Dead”-like social satire it strains to be. - 40
Empire
Showing more enthusiasm than aptitude, this earns ‘could do better if it tried’ on its report card — but it’s a strange enough genre mix to be vaguely worth a look. - 40
Screen Daily
This sloppy horror comedy under delivers on both shocks and laughs. - 40
The Telegraph
The school isn’t specific enough and the horror isn’t weird enough: on both fronts, it’s so broad it could practically be a Norfolk waterway. - 40
Time Out
Mills stages the B-movie mayhem with gleeful abandon and geysers of blood.
