Critical response
Pablo Vázquez of Fotogramas rated the film with 4 out of 5 stars praising "its twisted and playful nature, worthy of the best exploitation cinema", assessing the give-and-take between a Joan Crawford-esque Sánchez-Gijón and the "young and enchanting" Cumelén Sanz to be the engine of the film.
Oti Rodríguez Marchante of ABC scored 2 out of 5 stars, writing that "the way in which the plot is complexified is overly forced, but it is easy to see the place towards which the plot is tumbling".
Carmen L. Lobo of La Razón gave it 3 out of 5 stars, praising "an always stupendous" Sánchez-Gijón as well as Cumelén Sanz, while also observing the similarities of the story with that of The Daughter.
