Entertainment Weekly Gillian Flynn
The best worst series on TV. [30 Sep 2005, p.89] |

New York Daily News David Hinckley
It's a show so determined to shock that it cares more about that than about such things as compelling lead characters, believable situations or inventively solved mysteries. |

Boston Globe Matthew Gilbert
It's not awful, exactly, but it's so willfully bleak as to become monotonous. |

Hollywood Reporter Ray Richmond
There is a lot of "The Silence of the Lambs" in Fox's creepy new "Killer Instinct," but not enough to make it compelling rather than simply icky. |

Los Angeles Times Robert Lloyd
With its soundtrack full of metal and techno and its killers packing imported deadly spiders and home surgery kits, it aims for a Gothic moodiness not unrelated to the season's scary-monster shows. |

Variety Brian Lowry
Lifeless and uninspired. |

USA Today Robert Bianco
The season's worst show. |

Chicago Tribune Maureen Ryan
Nothing could really prepare anyone for a show so wantonly grisly as this worthless, exploitative program. |

This is entertainment? Awful. |

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Rob Owen
A sadistic series that, underneath its ghastly veneer, is just a dull, unoriginal crime drama. |

San Francisco Chronicle Tim Goodman
You won't see any worse acting across the broadcast spectrum. The women-in-peril scenes are vile. The writing is atrocious. The series is horrifically bad. And not in a way that would make a good drinking game. |
