Critical Reception
Hell of the Living Dead received a negative reception from critics, and is considered a so-bad-it's-good movie by many critics. Allmovie wrote, "Dawn of the Dead spawned many an Italian-made ripoff but none of them were ever as awful or crazy as Bruno Mattei's jaw-dropping Hell of the Living Dead. is so incredibly, cluelessly bad that it makes perfect fare for cult-flick fans to use on their next 'bad movie night.'" DVD Verdict said of the film, "Did you like Romero's Night of the Living Dead? How about the sequels Dawn of the Dead and Day of the Dead? If so, then you're going to absolutely hate Hell of the Living Dead."

Famous quotes containing the words critical and/or reception:
“The principle goal of education in the schools should be creating men and women who are capable of doing new things, not simply repeating what other generations have done; men and women who are creative, inventive and discoverers, who can be critical and verify, and not accept, everything they are offered.”
—Jean Piaget (1896–1980)
“I gave a speech in Omaha. After the speech I went to a reception elsewhere in town. A sweet old lady came up to me, put her gloved hand in mine, and said, “I hear you spoke here tonight.” “Oh, it was nothing,” I replied modestly. “Yes,” the little old lady nodded, “that’s what I heard.””
—Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
