Reception
Collette Hughes of VultureHound wrote that the film "falls into the it’s so bad that it’s good category", and praised the choreography and the Bath's performance. Scott Foy of Dread Central rated the film 2.5 stars out of 5 and wrote: "Feeling too forced is probably the biggest thing preventing Evil Feed from achieving the modern grindhouse tone it strives for." Foy also criticised the performances, but called Bath a "standout". James Perkins of Starburst wrote: "While enjoyable in parts, Evil Feed doesn’t quite live up to its bonkers premise. With too many styles and ideas battling for attention, its brilliantly repulsive moments become a little lost in the mix." Garry McConnachie of Daily Record rated the film 2 stars out of 5, and wrote that it is "bereft of laughs and scares". However, he also praised Bath's performance, as well as the high body count.
