Jon Mendelsohn of Comic Book Resources Candy Land succeeds at juggling multiple genres at once, resulting in a memorable, layered, and bloody slow-burn of a horror flick."[11]
Beatrice Loayza of The New York Times Candy Land is standard grindhouse fare(...)though not without its fair share of pleasurable nastiness."[12]
