"You’ll squirm, screech and then writhe with laughter. 2001 MANIACS has all the elements of a good time and still raises a dialogue among viewers that not many have had the balls to address in horror, or filmmaking in general, since the ’70s."

AINT IT COOL NEWS review by Smokey Monkey
" 2001 Maniacs is one of the funniest, goriest, most offensive movies I've seen in a long time. I predict now that the remixed version of “The South Will Rise Again” will be playing at Nascar races a year from now. Or writer/director Tim Sullivan will be lynched. It could go other way. "

BLOODY DISGUSTING review by Tex Massacre
"Sullivan and co-writer Chris Kobin leave no stone unturned as they skew lesbianism, incest, bestiality, cannibalism, racism and homophobia in what seems like a calculated tactic to give the conservative members of the MPAA a collective heart attack. This Mason-Dixon Line gumbo of every conceivable taboo subject could have ended up as nothing more than a patchwork quilt of scenes slapped together for no other purpose than their mutual shock value, but the thread of black comedy that holds the film together makes 2001 Maniacs a coherent and campy orgy of blood, breasts and bogeymen, guaranteed to insight some serious laughter and surprising shake ups amongst the viewing audience."

CREATURE CORNER review by Alex Riviello
"Fans of gore will be in heaven here- just see below for the largest Gore Score I've written yet for the site. The effects are great, all done in humorous ... and very stereotypical ways. The gay guy gets a spike up his ass, the black guy gets compressed in a cotton gin, etc. That adds to the enjoyment of the film... as it's so silly and ridiculous that you can't help but laugh."

DREAD CENTRAL review by Mr. Dark
"We NEED movies like this. They call us back to a place of innocence, where we weren’t so damn obsessed with watching for every opportunity to be offended. By borrowing so liberally from those two genres, 60’s gore and 80’s sex, Sullivan has made a movie that just might remind us that these things are supposed to be fun, that not every film has to make some grand social statement or pay tribute to the gods of political correctness. Sometimes it’s actually OK to sit back in a theater and laugh your head off at the stuff that we all think about but never talk about or do, because it’s socially unacceptable."

JOE HORROR by Joe Horror
"Thank God for Tim Sullivan and Lions Gate Ent. It’s so damn refreshing to know somebody out there is hearing the fans. Sullivan’s 2001 Maniacs is set to prove to the mental midgets making cookie cutter horror for my little sister, that horror fans really do want original, adult horror."

KILLER REVIEWS by The Butcher
"What seriously rocks about 2001 Maniacs is the balls to the wall approach that Director Tim Sullivan takes with the material. Tim, being a huge horror fan himself, clearly understands the genre and it comes across."
