british critic jamie russell's review is a bit harsher. he writes that "i eat your skin" is a "laughable voodoo-esque tale" with "woeful zombies" that was "shelved for reasons obvious to anyone who has had the misfortune of sitting through it." but he points out the film's historical place as part of the "bumper crop" of post-"night of the living dead" movies, although adding that most of these movies "have slid into (mostly) deserved obscurity."
