Rich Rosell from "Digitally Obsessed.com" awarded the film a grade C. Rosell praised the film's special effects that transformed actor Devon Gummersall into a human spider but complained about the film's dull story commenting, "Stan Winston's Creature Features series is tied at 1-1, with this weak entry balanced against the entertaining initial release of "She Creature". The story here is shamefully weak, and seems to borrow handily from "The Fly" for most of its intended, but poorly executed, dramatic tension. The campy superhero parallels mostly fall flat".
