Reception
The Lair received mixed reviews from critics. As of August 2024, the film holds a 35% approval rating on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes based on 20 reviews.[3]
Variety wrote "There’s nary a dull moment, albeit no truly memorable ones either. It’s a movie more hectic than exciting, let alone scary. But it does move along at a brisk clip that attests to the director’s knack for staging and pacing splattery action."[1] Noel Murray of the Los Angeles Times wrote "The Lair doesn’t finish as spectacularly as it starts, but that just means it’s a good genre picture and not a great one."[4] Simon Abrams of RogerEbert.com awarded the film two-and-a-half stars out of four, calling it "a good-enough horror/action hybrid", praising the action scenes and practical effects of the monsters but had a more mixed opinion on the acting and dialogue.[5]
