- 70Arizona RepublicRandy CordovaArizona RepublicRandy CordovaMonster Party is a twisted, grisly little shocker that isn’t afraid to grab you by the guts — or to show you a man’s guts cascading to the floor. It’s that kind of movie. It’s also pretty effective and rather fun, if you have the stomach for this sort of thing.
- 70The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThe Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckGleefully gory and darkly funny, Monster Party is the sort of extreme genre exercise that separates real fans from mere dilettantes.
- 58The Film StageJared MobarakThe Film StageJared MobarakLetting the “monsters” dispatch each other lets our “heroes” retain their fear and expendability — they can die when you least expect it because they aren’t our only means towards victory. This universal animosity keeps things interesting so the battles can be short and sweet without any monologues extending the opportunity for table turning.
- 50Los Angeles TimesNoel MurrayLos Angeles TimesNoel MurrayThe movie is pretty lightweight — disemboweling aside — but has a fair amount of punch, and it could appeal to connoisseurs of self-conscious pulp.
