3/5
In spirit, this is a film of the present rather than the past. Go to Full Review Clint Worthington RogerEbert.com Jul 21
2.5/4
[It] bundles buckets of practical gore with a sapphic punk-horror vision as riveting as it is disquieting to watch. Go to Full Review Deirdre Crimmins Rue Morgue Magazine 3d
Penny Lane is Dead is very far from a bad film; at times it can be pretty darn fun, and it contains a couple of good, rousingly nasty moments. But the positives are too few and far between, and the movie ultimately fails to deliver on its promises. Go to Full Review Anthony O'Connor FILMINK (Australia) Jul 15
12/20
... a great cast, good characters, slick direction and a terminal script. Go to Full Review Simon Miraudo Movie Squad (RTRFM 92.1) Jul 10
3.5/5
