Reception
editHorror society says “The Redsin Tower is a surprisingly well-shot horror film” in comparison to TOETAG Inc's previous August Underground series, giving the film a rating of 3.5/5.[11] Jay Alan from Horror News wrote that “There are guts pouring, heads rolling, maggots and blood squirting, grotesque vomiting and the absolute best ax murder I’ve ever seen. “[12] Johnny Butane of Dead Central writes, "The horrible things that happen to these kids [are] spaced out in such a way that the actions fit into the overall narrative quite nicely, which makes the film as a whole even more enjoyable."[13]
