VarietyMercury Fur: '...depicts a scary, post-apocalyptic London where, intheir struggle to survive, a group of youths are reduced to organisingparties that cater for the most perverted tastes.' IndependentLeaves of Glass: 'There is a different kind of murder going on here:the murder of truth that goes on in all families to a lesser or greaterdegree. As with nations, a family's history is written by the victors.' GuardianPiranha Heights: 'The extravagance of Ridley's dark vision suggests adangerously confused society in which individuals seize on randomgobbets of semi-digested information and use them to construct theirown personal narrative.'
