Pere Vall of Fotogramas rated the film 3 out of 5 stars citing "the great scream queen Roser Tapias and Jorge Motos; its decided, brave and original bet on genre cinema in these times; the much talked about scene of the collective nudity" as positive elements.

Carmen L. Lobo of La Razón rated the film 3 out of 5 stars, writing about how it "manages to maintain the tension; it is an interesting Christmas horror story".
